Hi!
I’m disillusioned by the emphasis on the frantic continuously changing rat race work culture. In my remote job search now, I’m looking for alternative models that fit with people, like myself, who work better in a steady environment. I’m compiling a list of companies that embrace this , or at least tolerate it .
Would you suggest any companies that fit this description?
Hi Hashem,
Companies are increasingly feeling the pressure for continuous innovation and improvement. Building a company brick by brick with slow but steady growth became old-fashioned.
You are looking for a job in an industry that does not require as much change but relies on continuity. Jobs like that can be found in the public sector, i.e., public authorities, rather than political jobs. Here, growth is not an issue, and due to the standardized career paths, it is less of a "rat race".
Another example are family-held mid-sized companies. While they value innovation and improvement, it comes at a slower pace.
I hope that helps, and good luck with your job hunt!
Thanks Jan E. Walsken . I understand why mid-sized business would be more stable than smaller ones but how does the family-held part affect the question?
Dear Hashem,
This is an interesting contribution. And I think against the background of the idea of an "organization-person-fit" this is also a perfectly legitimate and good question. I don't have an answer, though the rates of change can certainly differ greatly between organizations. Not in all cases, but often, the rate of change in the public sector is likely to be somewhat more moderate. At least in Germany, I would find that to be the case, but I think it's likely to be similar in Canada as well.
I guess you will find some evidence in literature: Article Measurement of Perceived Organizational Readiness for Change...
Best wishes Stephan
Hello dear colleagues, Thank you for your interest in our article. We have tested our model only on schools and training centers in Morocco. We are convinced that he is holding on. our research continues
This is an important issue these days. Congratulations and good luck with your research, Hashem Elassad
Hashem Elassad, work-life balance is increasingly relevant. This should be taken more seriously by organizations and schools. Stress, burnout, and mental health issues are gaining space in the discussions because of their impact on health, productivity and performance levels.
Organizations respond to the demands and challenges of the environment. Slow and steady are descriptors that have been replaced by turbulent and fast pace.
However, with forecasting appropriateness of research takes time and longevity and so, slow and steady may be applicable
Thanks @Janice Johnson-Lorde. Would do you mean by " with forecasting appropriateness of research takes time and longevity"?
