Description: "The story and analysis of flexibility and entrepreneurship is told in The Future Workforce: The 21st-Century Transformation of Leaders, Managers, and Employees, a future-focused view of the American workforce in all sectors. But the emergence of new kinds of employees, managers, and leaders has been overlooked. In response to the incredible challenges of the workplace, new workers at all levels represent the creation of the most productive and creative workforce America has ever witnessed. Here, Irving Buchen projects and describes the workforce of the future and offers a comprehensive survey of contemporary work environments with descriptions of future learning and unlearning training systems."

"The Future Workforce is for business and human-resource professionals, personnel recruiters, professional trainers and coaches, and colleges and professors of business."--Jacket.
