The nature of the workforce is changing in important and fundamental ways, as career and family become equally significant concerns for men and women alike. In the increasingly competitive labour market of the 1990s, companies which respond to the changing needs and aspirations of their staff will be the most successful in developing a highly skilled, innovative and continued workforce. Based on their substantial research, the authors explore in depth some of the major issues facing members of dual career partnerships, and the organisations which employ them. Managing the New Workforce considers the implications for management of the changes in employees' lifestyles, and offers some practical solutions to dilemmas which threaten to hold back the careers and contributions of some of the most talented and highly trained members of today's labour force. This book is an invaluable source of information and ideas for managers, personnel professionals and dual career spouses themselves, concerned to enhance the performance of their organisation while at the same time enabling members of the new workforce to lead healthy, balanced and creative lives.
