Abstract

The move from community to individual is explored in this chapter. Newer workers are often described as being less loyal; however, loyalty is closely associated with care and commitment. The Bank and its workers have experienced a shift in the care relationship and this has had consequences on the perception of a successful worker. In the modern world communities are being broken up and mechanical societies are being transformed into organic societies which place bonds of contract over bonds of social cohesion. The break-up of communities leads to anomie where workers scramble to fit into the new fragmented societies with little indication of how to be successful. Organisation boundaries have become flexible and loose allowing external influences to determine their character. These are the features of the contemporary transformed organisation that must face new high-tech challenges.
