Aversion to bullshit jobs

Post by arzina566 »

5. Remote working brings innovation
Organizations face major challenges to keep up with the times, innovation is becoming increasingly important. Organizations want to innovate, but the question is: will they really succeed? For the vast majority, the most positive answer is: 'in small doses'. Innovation in organizations occurs despite the system rather than thanks to it. The system unintentionally prevents innovation.

Remote working allows us to break away from these existing structures. We work in a new and varied environment, which makes employees more flexible and creative. It enables employees to critically examine the way of working from a distance – literally and figuratively. It is a true driver of innovation because people can reinvent themselves outside the beaten track.

We own more products than ever before, yet we are often dissatisfied. As many as one in three employees find their work meaningless. We are searching en masse for meaning: as individuals and organizations, but also as an economy. Can a company be such a source of meaning? And does it actually yield anything?



Too many people experience their work as meaningless these days. American anthropologist Graeber calls these bullshit jobs. Work that the performers themselves experience as completely meaningless, even when nothing at all goes wrong in the work.

Like Tom, a graphic designer in a video production company. He is employed to make products and people look more attractive, so that products sell more. He says about this: “Now my job is a singapore telegram data combination of creating a need and then exaggerating the usefulness of a product that can fill that need. (…) When you get to a point where, in order to sell products, you first have to mislead people into thinking they need them, it’s hard to argue that those jobs aren’t bullshit.”


Nowadays, a lot of medical information is available online – on websites and via apps. Public and via My Environments. More and more healthcare organisations are making the switch from the classic brochure rack to digital first . A central content source is essential for this. But how do you tackle this? And what are the biggest challenges? In this article, we delve into the digitalisation of patient information.

Last year, a Nivel survey showed that people are currently searching for information about health complaints and conditions (60% of people) and treatments (37% of people). In other words: what do I have? And what should I do about it? Digital searching is the most popular. An open door, but still. In 2020, it is therefore difficult to think of a reason why you would not digitize.
