Tomorrow's workplace: no jobs ... just work to be done

The workplace of the future will be less structured, and roles will be less specific. As teams and teamwork become the way to get the work done, those who have relied on a job description to direct what they do will face a real challenge. As this shift in thinking moves into the health care setting, there is fear and confusion on the part of both managers and staff. By working together, managers and staff can build trust and a new sense of security even in an uncertain future.
