自工业革命开始以来，生活克里思不断加快（麦格拉思和凯利，1986）。在20世纪结束时，生活更加围绕时钟旋转，特别是在西方文化中，里夫金在他的书《时间战争》（1987）中提出，计算机正在促进时间取向的指数加速。计算机硬件操作可以以十亿分之一秒的速度进行，这种能力为组织的有效性和效率设定了新的时间标准。这种加速的时间导向影响到工作组织的各个方面。由于这种时间取向，员工面临的最大挑战可能是在这种时间压力下试图在各种行动方案之间做出选择。时间压力可能不会以同样的方式影响每个人。它可能对一个人具有挑战性，并使另一个人衰弱。事实上，时间取向已经被认为是个体差异的基本参数之一（Bluedorn & Denhardt，1988）。
Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the tempo of life has continually accelerated (McGrath & Kelly, 1986). At the close of the twentieth century, life revolves ever more around the clock, especially in Western cultures Rifkil, in his bookTime Wars(1987), proposes that computers are contributing to an exponentially accelerating time orientation. Computer hardware operations can be carried out as fast as billionths of a second, and this capability has set new temporal standards of organizational effectiveness and efficiency. This accelerated time orientation affects every aspect of a work organization. Perhaps the most substantial challenge facing employees as a result of this time orientation is trying to choose between alternative courses of action while under this time pressure. It is likely that time pressure does not affect everyone in the same way. It may prove challenging to one individual and debilitating to another. In fact, temporal orientation has been recognized as one of the fundamental parameters of individual differences (Bluedorn & Denhardt, 1988).
