Work from home will become a reality. Advance technology is a partial reason. Primarily, the inter-personal relationships and communications will increasingly become more hostile.
With the advent of gender wars, and laws coming into place like DV Act and Sexual harassment laws, men and women will find is very difficult to work with each other.
Globalisation will force the company to build the office in the cyberspace. 9 to 5 jobs will become outdated and impractical. 24 hours work will become inevitable. Employees from various locations of the country will work from home in the time prescribed by the company with specific assignments and needed technological assistance.
Employees will go to their office on the intranet with the time alloted to him hour-wise. For example, 1st employee will work from 9 to 11, then 2 to 4, then 6 to 8. 2nd employee will work from 7 to 9, then 12 to 2, then 4 to 6, then 8 to 10. There will be thousands of employees working in this fashion from their homes.
There will be an unimaginable increase in specialisation. One particular work will be further dissected into ten work and given to ten different people. One employee can't know everything. Not possible.
Challenges are opportunities. Opportunities are based on imagination. Imagine the future, opportunity will be seen and then you face the challenge.
Create your own future.
