Question I missed on a retarded grad work quiz...

[DrPizza]

The growth in internet technologies has led to job clustering. True/False.


edit: do you think it's true or false, discuss.

(I thought the question was a pretty poor question)

 

[God On Alcohol]

true

 

[FoBoT]

i like pie?

Define job clustering.

Not to be horribly bad, but if you miss a question on a retarded test, what does that make you?

ha ha.

 

[FoBoT]

it is a dumb question

 

[DrPizza]

But, if you had to respond to that question, what would you say?

 

[EyeMWing]

False.

 

[QED]

True.

The growth of internet technologies has allowed many common organization tasks which in the past had been dedicated to particular employees to be shared by a network or team of colleagues efficiently. This, in turn, has led to an increase in the practice of job clustering-- a situation where employees talents and abilities are grouped into a common pool and then divided up accordingly to work on specific tasks or projects.

Hence, multiple employees share responsibility for a specific job yet each employee retains enough flexibility to work with a new group on a new task as business needs arise or employment resources dictate.


How's that for a BS answer?

IT has allowed the distribution of network resources acrross great lengths, therefore dispersing groups while still keeping them itogether in a sense.


I would argue that IT has led away from job clustering since you no longer rely on a single facility and the limited internal allocated resources that are available onhand.

Now one employee can execute the agendas of multiple positions and there is no longer the clearly marked set of factions that make up a project.

Contractors can be brought into the corporate intranet on an on-demand basis and decentralization all but eliminates the restrictions that job clutering, with its permanent employees and facility-lited resources , brings with it.
