Work
             The way that we have worked, and what
              we consider employment, has changed
                      through the centuries

19th Century




                  The work environment was relatively simple and best practices for
                  management and communications were developed that still inform
                                many of our current work practices.

                  The information age emerged and organisations had to deal with
                  complicated environments. The 鍖ood of management books is an
                 example that there was no single best practice, only good practices.

                   Our work environments are becoming complex, blurring the lines
                   between work, home and play. We now have access to anyone at
                                             anytime.
