As labour is becoming more and more knowledge controlled, it also getting closer to the individual person. We sometimes seem to forget this. To an increasing extent it is becoming a part of oneself and therefore of the personal identity. The increasing humanization of labour asks for an HRM-policy and an organizational context in which the individual is able to identify with the organization, colleagues, customers/clients and product. Heterononimous or abstract organizations, organizations in which the employees and civilians have been reduced to numbers and in which there is no real consideration for the individual differences, have to make way for organizational structures in which the individual feels (self) responsible again. The future lies with personal, tribally inspired organizations in which managers will be leaders and where employees and managers can show social commitment. Images like that of: the egocentric boss who by making swift career moves avoids responsibility for employee/co-worker and customer/client; of colleagues taking the day off without consultation or who are putting their phone through to someone else without saying so beforehand, meeting rooms which are not being cleaned up after use and the image of a Xerox machine not being refilled up with paper by anyone, are all too frequently dismissed as not being part of productivity.

Demand Driven Care plays a key role in the modernization of the Dutch health care system. This modernization is needed because a) clients needs for care increases quantitatively as well as in diversity, b) the financial means for collective services are inadequate, c) the accessibility of health care will depend on clients own responsibility, and d) shortage of professional care givers is foreseen. In the Netherlands, the need for professional care givers increases with an average of 2% every year. Demand Driven Care is an instrument for liberalization of public activities. The Faculty Chair Demand Driven Care focuses on those activities that will contribute to sufficient care supply. Within the program of the chair, activities are executed under the theme of Integrated Care, Substitution, Patient Centred Care, and Home Care Technology with an emphasis on gerontechnology. The Faculty Chair wants to contribute to a better integration and coherence in care. So that clients live and function independently as long as possible and are able to enhance their self management. In addition, health care professionals should be aware of demand driven processes and should have a demand driven attitude towards clients.

Begin 2020 heeft de gemeente Den Haag aan De Haagse Hogeschool (Lectoraat Urban Ageing) gevraagd om samen met Hulsebosch Advies en AFEdemy een integrale monitor te ontwikkelen en uit te voeren waarbij, door middel van kwalitatieve en kwantitatieve methoden, onderzoek wordt gedaan naar de stand van zaken van Den Haag als seniorvriendelijke stad en tevens te kijken naar huidige trends aangaande ouderen. Tevens vroeg de gemeente om de ontwikkeling van een meetinstrument dat in de toekomst eenvoudig bij herhaling kan worden ingezet voor onderzoek: de standaard Age Friendly Cities and Communities Questionnaire (AFCCQ) voor ouderen1. In een stadsenquête en in zogenaamde stadsateliers zijn ouderen gevraagd naar hun bevindingen. In totaal hebben 393 Haagse ouderen meegedaan aan de enquête en 50 aan de stadsateliers. De aan de ouderen gestelde vragen gingen over de volgende acht onderwerpen die volgens de Wereldgezondheidsorganisatie (WHO) gezamenlijk de seniorvriendelijkheid van een stad bepalen: ●Huisvesting; ●Sociale participatie; ●Respect en sociale inclusie; ●Burgerschap en werkgelegenheid; ●Communicatie en informatie; ●Sociale en gezondheidsvoorzieningen; ●Buitenruimte en gebouwen; ●Transport; ● en aanvullend, een negende domein: Financiën.
