Workplace collaboration scenario at-a-glance
Organizations have to acknowledge the shifting behavior and workplace choices of employees. It is time one provides maximum support to their employees either by investing in up-skilling them or by providing beneficial technologies to be more productive.
Besides, organizations need to be mindful of factors that connect employees and customers, ideally leading to a better business outcome. For those who are new to this ideology, here is the hint - it is time to ditch the historical customer-centric approach and hop on the employee-centric wagon.
To implement it successfully, leaders must understand the importance of the employee-centric approach and methods/tools needed to scale the efforts. The best support one can get is from industry analysts who constantly analyze the market space to help leaders bid on the right tools and methodologies.
Several opinions and research works about employee productivity started emerging right after the boom of computer-mediated culture. Implying the combination of co-evolving humans and computer tools as a single system that will revolutionize the way we work. Soon came the understanding of the relationship between productivity, teamwork, and business success.
In the knowledge economy, each of us act as information carriers, the reason why peer support, one-to-one, and one-to-many collaboration mediums have become the heart of employee engagement as well as productivity.
With the unbelievable spike in knowledge sharing mindset, the imitation of the same is expected within the workplace, and the better way to accomplish it is by implementing a comprehensive collaboration platform across teams in an organization. The ultimate purpose of implementing such a collaboration tool should be amplifying employee productivity and encouraging collaborative work culture.
