Your business communication channels are the foundation of your organisation. From letting employees connect and collaborate in real-time to enabling vital customer or client communication – it's essential to streamline company interactions to remain productive.
In recent months, organisations have increased their reliance on enterprise communication channels like never before. The unexpected impact of COVID-19 challenged businesses to rapidly shift their working operations in response to social distancing measures. To adapt, many had no choice but to implement a connectivity-first approach. For example, rapidly adopting multiple third-party applications, or software, to enable teams to continue working from home.
Yet, it's now evident that the repercussions of the pandemic are going to be long-term. Not just in our personal lives but in shifting the perceptions of working life too. People are now comfortable fulfilling work away from the office, and 58% of workers report they are more productive with the option to work from home. Additionally, experts predict that a 60/40 split between on-site and remote work will become the norm in ten years. And while not all jobs can fully enable an off-premise work structure, for those who can, it will continue to be a decision-factor for hiring new talent, maintaining work-life balance, and ensuring employee satisfaction in the future.
