Thanks to digitalization and globalization, we now live in a world that is <em>volatile, uncertain, complex,<\/em> and <em>ambiguous<\/em>. Experts have coined the term \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/VUCA\"><strong>VUCA<\/strong><\/a>\u201d (<strong>V<\/strong>olatility, <strong>U<\/strong>ncertainty, <strong>C<\/strong>omplexity, <strong>A<\/strong>mbiguity) to describe this phenomenon.

Employees who stubbornly reproduce the same work processes from nine to five will not get the company or organization where it wants to be. What you need are people who are <strong>self-starters<\/strong>, who think creatively, and who love what they do. Similar to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/en\/agility\/objectives-und-key-results-okr\/\"><strong>OKR (Objectives and Key Results)<\/strong><\/a>, management framework, the New Work approach creates a culture of &#8220;together, not alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-new-work-promotes-innovative-strength\">New Work promotes innovative strength<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"rotlink\"><br>In a New Work environment, employees are not motivated by their paycheck, but by the opportunity to flexibly <strong>combine work and private life<\/strong>, to develop their full potential, and to <strong>have a say in<\/strong> the direction of the company\/organization.

In fact, they are not identical, but they are <strong>closely related<\/strong>. Work 4.0 primarily refers to the <strong>technological<\/strong> transformation of the world of work: when we talk about Work 4.0, we mean the consequences of <strong>digital transformation<\/strong> for our everyday working lives.<br><br>The advent of new technologies is changing the way we work &#8211; not just in industrial manufacturing, but in all professions. We work more <strong>digitally<\/strong>, we are <strong>more connected<\/strong>, and we are <strong>more flexible<\/strong>. However, this also means that work processes are <strong>changing<\/strong> and some job profiles are disappearing altogether, while new job profiles are emerging elsewhere. For this process of change to be successful, a fundamental <strong>adjustment of organizational and management structures<\/strong> is required. This is where New Work comes in:<br><br>While &#8220;Work 4.0&#8221; refers to the <strong>technological solutions<\/strong> that enable us to keep pace with digital change in our everyday working lives, &#8220;New Work&#8221; refers to the<strong> mindset shift<\/strong> that is needed to achieve it. New Work is both the <strong>establishment of a new corporate culture<\/strong> in response to digital change and a <strong>new value system<\/strong> that emerges from this change and leads to changed expectations of the world of work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Gen-Z\">New ways of working and Gen Z<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Changing expectations of what &#8220;work&#8221; means are most evident in <strong>Generation Z<\/strong>. While Millennials value <strong>flat hierarchies<\/strong> and flexible work schedules, those born between 1995 and 2010 go a step further: Gen Zers begin their job search with<strong> idealistic values<\/strong>. They are not primarily looking for a job, but rather a &#8220;purpose. Gen Zers want work that is meaningful and (also) serves a non-monetary purpose. In other words, they want their work to <strong>make a difference<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But unlike previous generations, who are often willing to trade idealism for a higher paycheck, Gen Zers hold companies and organizations <strong>accountable<\/strong>: They care that their goals and ideals are aligned with the company they work for. If not, the search continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"top-down\">The workplace as the center of life<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not just the search for &#8220;purpose&#8221; in the world of work that makes Gen Z a <strong>new type of employee.<\/strong> More than any generation before them, Gen Zers are aware of a fact that Frithjof Bergmann has also pointed out: that the workplace has <strong>become the center of our lives<\/strong> in our culture. Not only do we spend most of our (working) lives at work, but we also make most of our social connections at work. The natural consequence of this development is that the boundaries between work and leisure are becoming increasingly<strong> blurred.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fce0ec\">However, this increasing blurring of the boundaries between work and personal life also means that the workplace must adequately compensate for lost <strong>leisure time<\/strong> and create space for <strong>personal development <\/strong>and <strong>self-fulfillment.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>In this way, Gen Z&#8217;s favorite phrase, the much-vaunted &#8220;work-life balance,&#8221; is losing its meaning: since &#8220;work&#8221; and &#8220;life&#8221; can <strong>no longer be neatly separated<\/strong> in the modern workplace, &#8220;work-life balance&#8221; is increasingly becoming <em>&#8220;work-life blending&#8221;.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"von-au\u00dfen-nach-innen\">What is work-life blending?<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>New Work combines work and personal life to enable employees to achieve the highest possible <strong>level of self-fulfillment<\/strong> and self-determination in their daily work lives. <strong>Work-life blending<\/strong> means that the traditional sharp division between personal and professional life no longer applies. Personal phone calls or errands during working hours are no problem, as long as business emails are answered before 9 a.m. and after 5 p.m. <br><br>In addition, companies and organizations are increasingly creating leisure <strong>activities<\/strong> for their employees and developing <strong>flexible working time models.<\/strong><br><br>While <strong>working from home<\/strong> has been standard practice in many companies since the coronavirus pandemic, New Work is characterized by a <strong>particularly high degree of workplace flexibility<\/strong>. Arrangements such as the four-day week, <em>the six-hour day<\/em>, or 100 percent <em>remote work <\/em>are not uncommon in a New Work environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Unternehmensstruktur\">New work?

However, the structures that a company or organization needs to establish on its way to a New Work approach do not only concern the executive level and (upper) management. The way people <strong>work together<\/strong>, <strong>work processes<\/strong>, and <strong>physical and technical structures<\/strong> must also be adapted to the new way of working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"roadmap\">New work requires new leadership<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"rotlink\">New work and Work 4.0 go hand in hand with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/en\/leadership\/what-is-leadership\/\"><strong>new concept of leadership<\/strong><\/a>. The concept of Leadership 4.0 is based on the recognition that traditional hierarchical leadership no longer works in our increasingly <strong>digital world<\/strong> of work. Leadership 4.0, also known as <em>digital leadership<\/em>, sees the key to success in the digital processes and tools that have become an integral part of our everyday work lives.<br><br>Digital leaders use <strong>new technologies<\/strong> to anticipate and respond to change. At the same time, leadership in the new work context is based on equality. Instead of dictating the path to be taken, the Leader 4.0 empowers employees to contribute to the company&#8217;s success <em>in their own way<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"verloren\">(Re-)structuring the work environment<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The New Work approach creates <strong>new freedoms<\/strong> for employees &#8211; and this is reflected in the <strong>spatial structures<\/strong>. We see two main dynamics at play: the reduction of traditional office space with fixed workstations, and the creation of new spatial solutions for new forms of collaboration. As the rise of home offices and remote working means that <strong>fewer fixed workstations are needed<\/strong>, the trend is towards <em>open-plan offices<\/em>, <em>desk sharing<\/em> and <em>co-working spaces<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"toolbox\">Technical structures and digital tools<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Wherever people <strong>work remotely<\/strong>, they need to be connected. As a result, technical structures are an essential part of the transformation to the new workspace. In addition to the right hardware (e.g., laptops and phones), companies and organizations need to provide the right <strong>software<\/strong> for call routing and l<strong>ocation-independent access<\/strong> to the internal <strong>network<\/strong>.<br><br>The right digital tools are also required to ensure that <strong>collaboration<\/strong> <strong>works<\/strong> remotely and\/or in purely virtual teams. Collaboration tools such as <em>MS Teams, Google Meet<\/em>, and <em>Slack <\/em>enable regular communication over long distances. New work tools such as <em>Trello, Confluence,<\/em> and <em>Miro<\/em> are popular for project management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"846\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Skill-Mind-Toolset.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Skill-Mind-Toolset.png 846w, https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Skill-Mind-Toolset-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Skill-Mind-Toolset-768x403.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 846px) 100vw, 846px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"neue-norm\">Teamwork reimagined<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"linkrot\">In the new world of work, the goal is to <strong>eliminate siloed thinking<\/strong> and <strong>empower employees<\/strong> to reach their full potential. Both of these goals are virtually impossible to achieve within traditional departmental boundaries. So New Work breaks down the silos in favor of <strong>cross-departmental project work<\/strong>. The goal of these &#8220;mixed teams&#8221; is not only to bring together the necessary skills, but also to gain a<strong> heterogeneous perspective<\/strong> on the project at hand. The result: out-of-the-box thinking, new perspectives and innovative solutions.<br><br>We find an extension of this idea in the concept of the fluid team: Fluid teams not only break down departmental boundaries, but also regularly change their composition. The fact that<strong> new team members <\/strong>are constantly working on a project creates a particularly high level of<strong> ideas and innovation.<\/strong><br><br>Another important issue related to new work is<strong> remote leadership<\/strong>. Remote leadership is especially important when teams communicate only virtually. While networking is usually not a problem and <strong>virtual teams<\/strong> can theoretically work together from anywhere in the world, a <strong>special kind of leadership<\/strong> is needed to ensure that not only the networking works, but also that the output is right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"linkrot has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fce0ec\">Find out more about our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/en\/trainings\/remote-leadership\/\"><strong>remote leadership training<\/strong><\/a> now!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Arbeitsformen\">New ways of working at a glance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-agile-work\">Agile work<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"rotlink\">New Work and agility are inextricably linked because they share the <strong>same fundamental principles<\/strong>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/en\/agility\/agile-transformation\/\"><strong>Agile transformation<\/strong><\/a> not only means moving away from rigid structures, top-down management, and strict departmental boundaries to flat hierarchies, autonomous teams, and flexible processes, but also promoting <strong>complete transparency<\/strong> and an open <strong>culture of communication and feedback.<\/strong><br><br>Even in agile structures, the line between work and personal life is becoming increasingly blurred, as the <strong>personal development<\/strong> and advancement of employees is in the <strong>interest of the company\/organization. <\/strong>Agile companies and organizations assume that a team member whose personal goals and values are compatible with those of the company\/organization is happier and therefore more efficient.<br><br>Agile working enables <strong>short decision paths<\/strong>, flexible course corrections, and efficient, <strong>customer-focused product development<\/strong>. Agile working methods commonly used in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/en\/trainings\/agiles-project-management\/\"><strong>agile project management<\/strong><\/a> include Scrum and Kanban. In product development, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/trainings\/service-design-thinking\/\"><strong>Design Thinking<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/en\/strategy\/future-thinking-methode\/\"><strong>Future(s) Thinking<\/strong><\/a> are popular agile working methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mobile-working\">Mobile working<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the coronavirus pandemic, we have learned that with <strong>good technical connectivity<\/strong> and <strong>good leadership<\/strong>, collaboration can work from anywhere! This has led to the development of a new way of working known as mobile working. While telecommuters are out of the office but still have a fixed workplace (at home), mobile workers are <strong>not tied to a specific location<\/strong>. This means they can work from anywhere: a coffee shop, a coworking space, or even the backseat of a minivan in the middle of the Grand Canyon National Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-crowdworking\">Crowdworking<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A relatively new development in the wake of the new work dynamic is <strong>crowdworking<\/strong>. In crowdworking, companies\/organizations do not work with a specific freelancer, but instead use <strong>online platforms<\/strong> to outsource work that does not require familiarity with the company&#8217;s structures.<br><br>The platforms, in turn, have a large network of freelancers who perform these tasks. In crowdworking, there is usually <strong>no personal contact<\/strong> between the company\/organization and the freelancer or contractor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Vorteile\">Advantages and disadvantages of the New Work concept<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Flat hierarchies, flexible working hours and more opportunities for personal development in the workplace &#8211; sounds great, doesn&#8217;t it? Unfortunately, as with any innovative concept, New Work comes with its own <strong>set of challenges<\/strong>:<br><br>Working from home or a minivan (mobile working) <strong>saves time<\/strong> and gives you more freedom. But it also requires a <strong>high degree of discipline<\/strong> and self-organization. Open-plan offices and the freedom to choose where you work can foster <strong>creativity and innovation<\/strong>. Without support and good leadership, however, changes of this magnitude can also trigger <strong>feelings of anxiety and resistance<\/strong>. Work-life blending can ensure that personal fulfillment and work life go hand in hand. However, it can also lead to overtime, increased pressure and <strong>mental burnout<\/strong>, as the separation between personal and professional life is ultimately important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion-on-the-new-work-concept\">Conclusion on the New Work concept<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The transition to an organization in which &#8220;New Work&#8221; works and is embraced by all stakeholders requires not only <strong>careful planning<\/strong>, but also a <strong>serious examination<\/strong> of corporate structures. &#8220;New Work is not a template that can be applied 1:1, but rather a concept that requires first and foremost a <strong>change in mindset and culture.<\/strong> Second, new ways of working and new methods lay the foundation for optimal collaboration in the new environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"846\" height=\"268\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/grafik3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/grafik3.png 846w, https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/grafik3-300x95.png 300w, https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/grafik3-768x243.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 846px) 100vw, 846px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_50-30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"wonderwerk\">On the road to New Work with Wonderwerk<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full pixscal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"846\" height=\"520\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/new_work_2_wonderwerk.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/new_work_2_wonderwerk.jpg 846w, https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/new_work_2_wonderwerk-300x184.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/new_work_2_wonderwerk-768x472.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 846px) 100vw, 846px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-wonderwerk-spacer spacer_30\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"rotlink\">Wonderwerk Consulting is one of Austria&#8217;s leading providers of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wonderwerk.com\/en\/trainings\/change-management-4-0\/\"><strong>Work 4.0 and change management<\/strong><\/a> services.
