Work is associated with the idea of accomplishing something, creating something new and acquiring skills that are socially necessary for our way of life. Leisure is understood as the time that is freely available to us to pursue all the interests that have no place in our working lives.\u00a0 I maintain that this understanding of work and the concept of work that we currently regard as \u201enormal\u201c has reached the end of its possibilities. In this article, I would like to explain the aspects that bring me to this conclusion.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n_____\r\n

The concept of work in a social context<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n
\u201eFirst the work, then the pleasure\u201c<\/em>\r\n\r\n\u201eIf you can party, you can also work\u201c<\/em>\r\n\r\n\u201eNo pain, no gain\u201c<\/em>\r\n\r\n\u201eHe who rests, rusts\u201c<\/em><\/blockquote>\r\nWho hasn't heard them, the wonderful sayings that we have been passing on socially for decades. All these sayings have one thing in common, namely the idea that there is a certain way in which life works and how much of our time we can freely determine and to what extent. The idea that work is not inherently meaningful, let alone meaningful for each individual, also resonates everywhere.\u00a0 \u00a0Work is what we live or what we do in order to live. The things that are close to our hearts, that we find meaningful for us as human beings and that we use to create meaning are often located more in our leisure time.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n_____\r\n

The cornerstones of the current concept of \u201ework\u201c<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n365 days a year, divided into months and work weeks, as well as weekends. 5 days a week are intended for work, 2 days a week are (in most cases) available for non-work-related matters. 40 hours or more are dedicated to work on 5 or more workdays; the rest is for everything else. In our work concept, the workday is conceptually considered to be 8 hours as a standard unit \u2013 classically and predominantly viewed as \u201enormal,\u201c starting in the morning and ending in the afternoon.\n\nThese are the starting points for all further specifications of our work concept: Below this is minor employment or part-time work, above this is doing overtime, and at other times shift work, late, and night shifts. There is also a primary job to which we dedicate the larger part of our time, and sometimes a secondary occupation, unpaid volunteer work, or unpaid care work, in which we also achieve something, but are not provided with financial resources for it according to our work concept.\r\n

The cornerstones of our idea of \u201cleisure\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nIn our working concept, leisure is understood as our \"free time,\" the time that is freely available to us after work is done.\u00a0<\/strong> At first glance, it's pretty great: 8 hours of work in a 24-hour working day means a brilliant 16 hours of free time!\u00a0 But wait: can we really use these 16 hours freely? Not really.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nWe should also sleep, ideally around 8 hours, so that leaves 8 hours that we can divide up freely. That's also a pretty good deal: 8 hours work, 8 hours free time. But wait a minute.\u00a0 Work, sleep, self-care, care work, relaxation, hobbies...<\/strong> Phew, quite a program that is predominantly filled with performance activities, especially when a large part of our energy has already gone into work. This means that we don't usually have any real freedom to organize our time, especially as the framework conditions largely dictate when we can do what (shopping, sports activities, etc.).\r\n\r\nSo our understanding of \"leisure\" is actually misunderstood if it encompasses everything that isn't \"work.\" The term is misleading.<\/strong>, because this time is not really free. It is the time we use for ourselves and those around us. Usually, however, more for those around us and less for ourselves. And often with additional benefits, even if they are not compensated financially. \u00a0<\/strong>\r\n\r\n_____\r\n

What our current work concept is based on<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nHow long has the idea of work and leisure existed? And how did it develop? This question is one that I always address with students on the subject of organization and change. This is because it is very revealing to learn about the basis on which our work concept is built. Because this basis also limits the possibilities to a certain extent and provides a direction, a framework. Ask yourself the question: How many truly new and groundbreaking things are possible if the foundations look like this?.<\/strong>\r\n

Increased efficiency in the Taylor system<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nWith the aim of optimizing efficiency and performance in production, the focus was on specialization, standardization and formalization, the classic logic of a factory from the industrialization era (keyword \u201eTaylor System\u201c).\r\n
\u201eA person is like a part of a machine<\/a>; He is lazy, selfish; he is only interested in material goods; he must be controlled and externally motivated.\u201c <\/em>(Frederic Taylor)<\/blockquote>\r\nHenry Ford in particular, who founded the Ford Motor Company in 1903, implemented and further optimized this machine logic in an ideal form thanks to flow production, a high degree of standardization and the disassembly of work processes. This \u201eFordism\u201c led to an unprecedented increase in productivity. Workers were primarily motivated by higher wages.\r\n\r\n
\"\"

Assembly line work: The origin of our work concepts. Here is a screenshot from Charlie Chaplin's \"Modern Times\" - a confrontation with the understanding of a human being as part of a machine as a reality of working conditions at the time.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

Motivation can be increased by social factors<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nBuilding on the aforementioned foundations and in pursuit of further efficiency gains, the \u201eHawthorne Experiments\u201c were conducted from 1927-1932 with the guiding question: \u201eHow can employees be motivated to achieve high performance?\u201c\n\nThese experiments established the Human Relations Approach, which remains the basis of our approach to work today. The underlying realization is that social relationships are highly relevant to human motivation. This can be deliberately influenced: If the social environment and the work are perceived positively (supervisor's behavior, trust, material incentives), job satisfaction increases, which in turn leads to higher productivity and greater work output.\r\n
\u201eMan is a social being; as a member of a group, he develops a common behavior towards the environment; the individual is merely a variable in explaining behavior.\" (Elton Mayo)<\/em><\/blockquote>\r\nSo, what we consider normal today emerged from a logic of increasing efficiency and productivity. Job satisfaction, as an interesting factor, was also included accordingly. And these foundations are still effective today: we continue to optimize work cultures and environments so that work can be accomplished, the core business can be handled well and efficiently, and everyone gives their best for it. And there are undoubtedly many brilliant achievements here. Nevertheless, they operate within this traditional framework.\r\n

We have long since made the best possible use of the existing work concept<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nI am convinced that we have currently reached a point \u2013 similar to Henry Ford back then \u2013 where we have gotten the very best out of what the foundation it is built upon allows. Because: How much optimization and change towards a \u201enew\u201c work concept, in accordance with current societal conditions, is actually possible?\n\nAll new work concepts, corporate approaches, ideas for work organization, dissolving hierarchies, and flexible processes have their limits in their potential for change and development, which are dictated by the framework on which they are built. Furthermore, we as a society have evolved, and the context of work is different than it was then. We have different needs, a much higher awareness of what is good for us and what isn't.\n\nThere are new crises and challenges to overcome, especially the climate crisis. Challenges that we can no longer \u201emanage\u201c in our \u201eleisure time,\u201c but for which overcoming requires different foundations and logics, indeed a completely new way of \"doing.\"\r\n

Quo vadis, \u201ework\u201c?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nIt is time for us to not only develop our idea of work further, but to completely rethink it.\u00a0 <\/strong>The current challenges for employees and employers, for companies and the workforce, can only be seized as an opportunity if we reinvent ourselves.\n\nCompanies are currently suffering particularly from a shortage of skilled workers, which will intensify in the coming years, as the retirement wave of the so-called \u201eBaby Boomers\u201c is about to begin. Many experts will be leaving the labor market, having embodied a work ethic that is no longer prevalent today.\u00a0 The understanding of work is changing and companies in particular cannot meet these changes effectively with traditional methods.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nOf course, it would also be possible to keep passing the hot responsibility potato around<\/strong>\u201eBut first... the politicians\/the biggest industries\/other countries would have to...\u201c. But then nothing would change. Or to put it another way: we would leave it to chance in which direction we or \u201eit\u201c would change. This idea is also somehow unsexy, isn't it?\r\n\r\nAnd yes, of course, this change is also one that requires us to let go of what we have grown to love and become accustomed to.<\/strong>\u00a0 The one that hurts, the one that requires effort and in the meantime perhaps even - when the new is not yet there and the old is no longer there - a little chaos.\r\n\r\nBut better a chaos that can be actively influenced and a change to a future that suits the new conditions than one that we have to deal with reactively. Or what do you think?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n_____\r\n

What is needed to reinvent the concept of work<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nThe concepts and new models are there, it's not about having to develop or invent something new. It's about having the courage to let go and reinvent yourself.\u00a0<\/strong> As a company, as a society, as an economy. And it's about establishing new metrics that open up a new space of possibilities. A new space of possibilities where the cards are reshuffled and responsibility is shared, for all of us. Because one thing is certain: the way things are now, it's no longer working. We see this in the skilled labor shortage, stagflation, increased pandemics and wars, the climate crisis, a widening gap between those who have everything and those who have nothing, growing inequalities of opportunity, and growing child poverty. And this is happening despite all adaptations of the existing system.\n\nThe necessary change will not work \u201etop down\u201c \u2013 neither at the societal nor at the corporate level.\u00a0 It is a change that only we can bring about together by deciding to use our Self-Efficacy\u00a9 for ourselves and a better future.<\/strong>\u00a0 Changing the concept of work as it exists now can only happen if awareness is raised and people are empowered to perceive their own needs and those of others, to take them on board, to work with them and to include the wider context. And this is already happening, even if we are often not so aware of it.\r\n\r\nI am myself a consultant for corporate health promotion, healthy work cultures, and I support people in their personal development through coaching and training. A central desire is always to find one's own way of working and to integrate it optimally into one's own work \u2013 as an individual, team, or company.<\/strong>\u00a0 This involves a huge variety of factors that can influence our well-being (mental, physical and social) both at home and at work.\r\n\r\nMy clients are usually concerned with the desire to increase their own well-being and at the same time the sense of purpose and their self-effectiveness.<\/strong>\u00a0 It is about thinking ahead, understanding one's own needs and priorities. Firstly, in the context of the existing situation, to become aware of the limits of the possibilities. Then it is also about getting back into action yourself and actively shaping your environment.\r\n\r\nIt's time for something new. Let's understand work as a contribution to joint, socially and ecologically compatible action. As a work concept in which not everyone is squeezed into predetermined paths, but in which diversity is lived in all directions and potential is called upon. And in a way that enables everyone to use their energy for what is close to their heart and thus to develop their optimal SelbstwirkKRAFT \u00ae.<\/strong>\u00a0 Because we have reached a point where further development in the conventional way has reached its limit. And I plead for the The courage to completely reinvent \u201ework\u201c.<\/strong>\r\n
