Overview
As business and social environments continue to evolve, and as organisations grapple with economic uncertainty, competition and ever-increasing customer expectations, the workplace dynamics have considerably changed from what they used to be. With new approaches to relationships and a deliberate collapse of organisational hierarchies, the task of getting people (of different backgrounds) to work together productively becomes even more challenging.
