Suite Chapter 1
During that time, in our Western countries, the economy away from manufacturing and it faces a "bug "size: no obvious gains in productivity services. Adam Smith had explained very well in his time: the haircut is certainly, through the centuries, the activity that has experienced the smallest improvement in productivity. He had much time to Greek barber to trim the beard of Agamemnon at the comely young woman model that artistically Alter.
And yet he had to find, even without the services, sources of economy. Never mind, our white collar, became more and more through higher levels of education, reflected. And was born a strange form of work organization in the right circles (oops!) Is called the neo-Taylorism nicely. Nicely? Indeed! While it is fashionable to make the new kitchen or new history, neo-Gothic, or the Neolithic néoclassisisme rather have bad press.
I found there this siren (unless it is finally a witch ... thought that Lulu?) New work requirements "thanks" to ICTs
But what is it that this new method of organizing work? It is not Taylorism, no, because there is a constant principle of respect, flexibility, adaptability, autonomy, job enrichment. And initially, the employees felt valued, we trusted them, they were less controlled by foremen finicky more concerned with inferno. But they soon became disillusioned, ICT, you know this stuff barbarians who pass by all that is computerized, allowed to develop surveillance systems much more effective than the warder more heinous. They allow continuous monitoring of the employee and a ruthless measure its performance.
And now, the key word was out ... And what did we invent, invent, and it still does in the name of this sacred performance? All the more so sacrosanct that globalization helping each individual responsible has understood that if there is not hers, the ugly little Chinese will be happy to do his job for him. Was he tertiary! The pressure comes more from the hierarchy, it comes from within. Form of terror not to be up and hinder the gay march to the future by slowing the pace of the great march forward with its shortcomings. And then, no hello, garbage, unemployment, closing position, business failure, relocation, and termination of beautiful dream!
