trends in the profession
The Professional Development subcommittee within MPACE seeks to provide informative and current information on relevant industry trends related to college career services and university recruitment. Since many of us are busy professionals and oftentimes are unavailable to peruse dense articles, we are providing a digest on articles of interest in order to provide some scholarly professional development in a pinch.The digests will include implications for career services and college recruitment professionals.
The following digest reviews the article “The Future of Work: What Google Shows Us About the Present and Future of Online Collaboration” by Christina Moore, published in TechTrends in May, 2016. The article summary below provides a brief overview of literature of the knowledge work environment most college graduates will enter and how universities and companies can integrate Google’s collaboration tools to foster social digital work environments.The full article can be viewed at the following web address: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11528-016-0044-5
