To create professionals for the future, who will be innovative and internationally competitive, we need to change the learning environment. The current traditional delivery systems of education do not develop the necessary interpersonal, analytical and creative skills to deal with the new knowledge economy. Baer (2005), in calling for a new model of learning, says this will require collaboration between educators and game designers to research how games are best aligned with the targeted learning environment and needs. The incorporation of games will require realistic assessment of the current structure of education so that “students’ ability to participate in complex social practices; learn new knowledge and perform well in novel, changing situations needs to be considered valuable learning” (Squire and Jenkins, 2004, p.31). When games and simulations are combined with technology they can generate the environment within higher education that can produce the highly-skilled professionals which are required.

Optimization of the activities of medical organizations providing primary health care requires the development of new organizational and functional models. The introduction of new approaches to organizing the activities of medical organizations is primarily a step towards patients. The new model is a patient-oriented medical organization, the management of which is based on the use of a process-oriented approach and «lean» technologies. Since 2019, within the framework of the federal project «Development of a primary health care system,» a project has been launched to introduce the «New Model of a Medical Organization Providing Primary Health Care». The implementation of the project is scheduled for 2019-2024 inclusive. The creation and replication of the «new model» is planned for the participation of all subjects of the Russian Federation. The introduction of lean technology methods in the work of medical organizations has reduced the waiting time for doctors, optimized the burden on doctors, reduced the time for obtaining research results, streamlining the process of moving a patient within a medical organization. The creation of an effective quality management system in medical organizations is achieved through the phased implementation of lean-technology.

What are we offered today by the aggressive new breed of leaders and educators in nursing? An angry, dwindling profession, failing with increasing frequency to meet the needs of patients and physicians and in the process making themselves and everyone else miserable. The idealistic young people who come into the profession to actually nurse patients are sometimes made to feel like Aunt Jemiinas, become discouraged and leave, or, if they remain, are denied status, promotions and raises. The "new model" nursing leaders and educators pursue higher status, higher incomes, more respect and recognition—as indeed most of us do. There's nothing wrong with that. What is damaging is the mode of attack. By striving to capture some independent middle ground between classical nursing and medical practice, nursing leaders threaten to make of their professionals neither nurses nor physicians, fit only to cause trouble: trouble for people who really want to nurse, trouble for physicians and administrators who can't get the help they need and, most of all, trouble for patients, who often cannot get timely medicines and competent ministrations without hiring a private-duty nurse. And even then competence is far from assured. Many nursing leaders and educators seem intent on abandoning a badly needed profession in the search for a new category of health-care professional that no one has asked for and hardly anyone needs. They have not merely neglected and downgraded classical, basic nursing; they have also sought to restrict entry into the profession by raising the standards of accreditation of schools of nursing and of licensure of individuals in many instances beyond what is necessary for the basic skills that are in such short supply.

Globalization and the resultant transition to virtual work are changing the dynamics of critical business relationships today. The organizational fabric is undergoing a transformation. The new knowledge economy, coupled with the modern customer based relationship approach has transformed the shape of business, catalyzed further by the internet revolution. Shrinking distance barriers and the emergence of new ways of building and delivering products and services online, is enabling the rapid globalization of markets. This chapter traces how the new knowledge economy, along with the modern customer based relationship approach, impacts the organizational fabric. The collaborative Web along with the e-enterprise, has brought into vogue the use of emergent social software platforms within companies, or between companies and their partners or customers. This, along with organizational willingness to take risks, has created new opportunities for companies in the domain of innovation, Internet based collaboration and co-creation.
