The logic of the labor supply chain
approach is compelling: Efficiently matching labor skills to demands
pays off. However, consider what the labor supply chain approach means
to workers. As a unit of labor that has certain qualifications, you
could be assigned to any of a variety of places and projects. Depending
on the need, you might be part of a virtual or physical team, and you
might be temporarily moved to another geographic location, until demands
fluctuate again.
In a 1-2 page paper, identify the
potential problem you see here. Indicate how you would learn to
effectively work with new people. Since moving to a new place can be
unsettling, indicate how you would develop a sense of team, trust, a
common culture, interpersonal relations, and so on, as components of
performance. Determine whether you are in favor of or against the use of
labor supply chain software, and defend your position. After the major
pros and cons are considered, identify ways to offset the potential
disadvantages of the labor supply chain approach.
