Flexible Pin-Code Strategy For Productive Workplaces
As per an industry report, 79% of employees globally prefer working from home and 36% would happily choose a work-from-home option over a pay raise. Evolving work styles and global business landscape is making employees flexi-minded. In fact, with increasing global collaboration among employees, regular work timings and defined workplaces hardly exist.
Case in point – the Indian IT industry. It is estimated that around one-third of the global workforce employed in top IT companies is based in India, making the country the unofficial global IT headquarters. Such growth means increased travel for Indian IT employees across the globe and staying connected round the clock with clients and teams in different locations, but at the same time. Flexibility of working remotely from home/ airports/ hotels rooms would enable such workforce to stay productive and deliver.
Remote working and flexible working environment sound very interesting but the transition from a time-bound workplace to an output-bound outfit does come with its own set of challenges or requirements.
While employees and organizations do accept the advantages of remote working and believe that it can enhance productivity manifold, efficiency is often curtailed because of outdated technologies at the work place. "Digital, Disparate, And Disengaged”, a commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Prysm highlights that 75% of information workers feel that their organizations don’t have adequate tools to help them collaborate effectively. According to 83%, the right collaboration tools can help them be productive regardless of location. 71% also said that they are more likely to remain at their company if investments were made in a modern, digital collaboration solution.
What are these ‘right collaboration tools’? These are technologies that can make a workplace conducive to work habits of today’s employees and the evolving businesses. Help create a workplace designed for today’s global mobile workforce that can help them collaborate with co-workers and customers from across the globe more efficiently, in a manner which would closely emulate face-to-face interactions.
