I wrote this paper as a student of the ASP (Alta Scuola Politecnica, link). The following is the abstract of the article:
Nowadays the marketplace is extremely dynamic and competitive, the continuous requests of innovation and the following creative destruction is bringing bad times to the management. The corporate leaders are in crisis while they are tackling the problem of human resources reorganisation and if the profits of corporations are increasing, the stress caused by high level of work is rising too. Consequently, the model of the worker is crossing a new era; it is changing from a single manual-worker entity to a networked knowledge-worker entity. This paper describes how the organisations are trying to address this process, analysing different approaches to the management of organisation it presents real case studies augmented by mean of historical perspective. A proper conception of the organisation can foster and promote valuable changing and innovation inside firms while it preserves the human dimension.
