Over the past forty years, the economic and working landscape have changed.  At times slowly, and at other times like a bolt of lightening, certain forces have emerged that have transformed the overall business climate.  These forces, the "Four Horsemen of the Corporate Apocalypse," have left much confusion in their wake in relation to doing business effectively and in motivating an increasingly diverse workforce.  This session will examine these Four Horsemen in detail and then explore how training, coaching, and professional development, more than ever are needed to help businesses thrive in a very new, post-industrial, apocalyptic business environment.  Participants will also critique a humanities-based business training model and pedagogy.
