In fact, we are witnessing the start of a revolution that will utterly transform the dynamics of the industry.…
Every company needs talented, skilled people. Over the years companies try to employ more and more talented, skilled people, that fit their requirements, business model and working practices. They continually optimise for the market they are in, particularly the larger ones. They become more and more efficient, more and more ‘Six Sigma’ - lean, mean business machines. And it works.
