The future will be the same as the past, except more expensive.
Organizations will begin acting as if people were their most valuable asset. Corporate people departments — training, eLearning, knowledge management, corporate communications, etc. — will converge. In 2008, a pioneering corporation will put this all together under the leadership of a CPO (Chief People Officer).
Web-savvy new hires will use networks to penetrate silos, talk directly with customers, and get things done rapidly. This will erode obsolete top-down organizational structures.
Everything 2.0. Get ready for Email 2.0, LMS 2.0, Linux 2.0, Performance 2.0, Business 2.0, AT&T 2.0, ROI 2.0, Davos 2.0, Training 2.0, and even Google Search 2.0.
Que sera sera.
