At the horizon, organizations such as  Adobe  and  Deloitte  abandoning time-intense performance appraisal systems that offered little in return. Pain can lead us to the source of our troubles — and with that efferent signal we can begin to act in response. This is exactly how I view the unfolding shift within organizations today. Traditional organizational structure and processes are often unfit to support the work life needs of human beings (think  Maslow’s notion  of safety applied to work). In many organizations retention will become an increasing worry. We shouldn’t feign surprise.
