TALK | Graduate computer scientist and IT consultant Lukas Pustina: “Companies could do a lot better with work organization and IT!”
// By Simone Janson
Technical innovations and social upheavals also pose new challenges for companies. Lukas Pustina, an IT expert and IT consultant, will provide tips for an efficient work organization, an optimal IT solution for companies and the security of online backups.
Lukas Pustina is a graduate computer scientist and is currently working on embedded systems. He has been an IT consultant for ten years and has thus gained deep insight into the way different companies work. He writes regularly on his insights and conclusions for a contemporary work environment in his blog.
Mr Pustina, what makes companies wrong when it comes to efficient work organization?
I think the adjective "wrong" is too strict. But there are some things that companies are not yet doing properly. Technology has developed rapidly, but how have they only used it for old ways of working. For example, for many it is eMail still only a substitute for the letter. This can also be seen in the current introduction of ePost. However, Internet technologies offer far more than letter substitutes. Fast teamwork across continents can do much more.
But not only the technology has changed rapidly, but the job requirements have also grown. Even today, many workflows are very complex and can only be solved by experts. I am not talking about technical professions. It can be said, perhaps, that the routine factory work is replaced by the case- or project-oriented knowledge work. In particular, it is also important that we can hardly solve problems alone, independently of others. We need to work with experts in teams.
So the technical changes affect the entire work organization?
Yes, but this change entails a necessary loss of control on the part of the companies. In contrast to manual work, the knowledge work requires a lot of creativity and a free spirit. However, you can not dispose of them at any time, but you are dependent on human factors: times you have good, sometimes bad days; times it is good in the morning, sometimes in the evening.
This fits only badly into the usual 9-to-5 working world. Anyone wishing to obtain the maximum benefit from their employees must also grant them the necessary freedom. This is certainly a big hurdle for companies that is growing with the company size. We have to get used to working out results-oriented. When and where an employee does his / her work must be left to him as long as he does his / her tasks. It is therefore necessary to have greater confidence in one's own employees.
Teamwork across continents sounds good: which tools do you recommend
