Missing Brass Rings: Middle Management Massacre

The idea of a corporate career has changed dramatically

This week’s episode tackles the problem that generations have when discussing a job, a career or working in the corporate world. What is a career now? The old 20th century concept of climbing the ladder has almost disappeared as the structure of corporations has changed. When did this start and how have corporations reacted to their own over-pruning of org charts? A crucial issue is how do younger workers even bother to spend time and energy on working hard when so few slots remain for advancement? This is part of the frustration with Boomers who are not retiring. They occupy some of the reduced numbers of management slots left.
