As you’ve learned throughout this course, organizations are constantly changing. Whether the change is in its strategies, structure, culture, demographics, or technology, it is important for business leaders to understand the effect these changes have on the organization, its business strategies, and organizational structure. The demographics of the organization influence some of these changes. Marketing and sales managers are very interested in the demographics of the organization’s customers and potential customers’ needs and desires. HR managers are interested in the demographics of employees because this knowledge can help recruit and retain appropriate employees. IT and general managers want and need the organization to be current with technology so the organization can remain competitive and relevant in the industry.
