WITH the Government's new WorkChoices bill introduced into Parliament yesterday, it's worth asking whether managers will be up to the job.
...

According to the report, we are entering an era where career nomads are rewriting the rules of management. Watch out for more "binge careerism", where employees work non-stop for an agreed period then take the equivalent time off.

And more "swing time" work arrangements, where the week is broken into work and play segments that suit the employer and employee. Great news for those who have bargaining power and who know how to negotiate.

Less so for those who don't. Do you think managers can cope with a more flexible workplace where they actually have to negotiate?
