Ten myths fall
1. Mobile devices make no rest. The stress of being constantly connected, even while on vacation, is long gone, at least for employees of German carmaker Daimler, which have software on their devices which eliminates automatically mails to those on holiday. The program notifies who sent the message that the person is resting and recommends further contact.
2. Work is a yoke. Having fun in the office is fashionable. Zappos is a successful company based in Las Vegas that sells shoes online. 20% of working time should devote to an activity they love, as a sport.
3. Efficiency first. Not anymore. Now the consumer is first. At Zappos, the call center does not have a limited time to serve the customers and the longest call time, by way of anecdote, was 10 hours and 29 minutes.
4. The head kicks. The horizontal structure so widespread in recent times has its maximum expression in the American gaming company Valve, which since its inception in 1996, there are no bosses.
5. Each to his own . Definitely not. At Valve, the desks have wheels and the employees move from one place to another, perhaps to form a work team, perhaps to play some online game. In Google, Googlers are encouraged to work in other areas that are not their own over 20% of work time.
6. Working time 8 hours. Under the microscope. In France and is 7 hours.
7. This is my desk. The trend indicates that there will be a table where you leave personal items, photos, and other papers. Desktops will be occupied by those who are in office at the time.
8.There to retire. The advances in the health, quality of life, sport ... will make the life expectancy of Generation Z and extends live to 100 years or more. Unthinkable then be removed before age 75, as Slim suggests.
9. Family or work. Both. New generations not resign no.
10. Working from home is working less. Experts say that often the opposite is true
