Are new job roles needed for organising in the new millennium..? (from @podnosh)


The kids waving their A-levels certificates this week will still be working in 2050. What kind of jobs might they be doing..? what skills will they need..?

I liked these new key job roles as a starter for ten in organising from @podnosh..
  1. Storyteller, communicating stories of how new worlds of local public support might be envisioned in the absence of existing blueprints;

  2. Weaver, making creative use of existing resources to generate something new and useful for service users and citizens;

  3. Architect, constructing coherent local systems of public support from the myriad of public, private, third sector and other resources; and

  4. Navigator, guiding citizens and service users around the range of possibilities that migth be available in a system of Local Public Support.
