WEBINAR – Working Smarter: Designing Work to Improve Well-being and Performance
Changes in Canadians’ jobs and workplaces are shaped by major economic and social trends. At the same time, there is considerable potential to maximize the upside of these trends by reimagining how we work.
Designing work to be more challenging, meaningful, skilled, collaborative and flexible will bring about improvements in organizational performance and workers’ well-being. As the OECD has argued, this must be a basic goal for all advanced industrial societies. Canada is ideally positioned to achieve this goal.
Canada’s well-educated workforce sets a high bar for talent management practices. This abundance of human resources should give employers a big competitive advantage in today’s information-driven economy. However, there is untapped opportunity to better enable workers to fully apply and further develop their capabilities. Finding ways to ‘work smarter’ will improve the quality of work-life, increase workers’ engagement and contributions – with positive results for organizational performance and society as a whole.
I will discuss the following topics in this interactive webinar:
- The current state of work in Canada
- How Canadian workers have experienced a tumultuous decade of change
- Trends in the quality of work-life
- Opportunities to improve both well-being and job performance
- How to redesign work to close the ‘capability gap’
