In the dynamic organization of the future, adaptation to environmental
change happens most readily at the organization's level--not among the
assembled pieces (people) working within it. Once we get many folks used
to working in teams assembled because of their assets as people--not as
representatives of a specific organizational unit--we will be there.
Being seen and known as a suite of skills and experience is more rewarding
for many people than being pegged in a single program. For some, the
desire to work at a home base (unit) may be too strong and that's OK too.
