Intellectual Innovation: A Paradigm Shift in Workforce Development

Abstract

Every organization struggles with recruiting and retaining the quality personnel needed to meet the ever-evolving requirements of the mission. Today's workforce complexity adds a unique challenge. As every manager and supervisor knows, the required work becomes more challenging over time, not less so. Technology and innovation drive the challenge, forcing organizations to recruit and retain employees who can respond to the organizations' missions or operational requirements. Here lies the challenge. How can organizations find, develop and keep employees in this dynamic and complex environment that constantly forces those who operate within it to question how to achieve continuous improvements? Perhaps a paradigm shift is needed in how we do this.
