4 must haves for a successful digital workplace
We know the best ideas are often made away from the desk, bringing a whole new meaning to flexible working. Now that flexible working has been put on fast forward for most businesses to be able to continue to operate in recent months, now is the time to firm up the digital workplace environment you have in place and make sure it is fit for building on the positives that we can get from this new flexibility.
In our last article we shared the O2 Business study insights that provided a strong indication that flexible working will be here to stay in a much larger capacity than pre-lockdown. So what can you do to make your set-up a success?
PRODUCTIVITY
Make the most of every day
Check the apps your employees use most often
See if they could be made simpler and easier to use
COLLABORATION AND COMMUNICATION
Work together anywhere
Give employees the freedom to connect with the people and information they need
Make teamwork easier and more effective
SECURITY
Get flexibility without compromise
Protect against the changing nature of cyber attacks
Build a Zero Trust Security Architecture
Create a “never trust, always verify” environment
Give secure access to remote workers
CHOICE

Freedom to select the device that suits how they want to work and access business applications
If all of these areas can be addressed, you should be well on your way to having people working with the technology they know best, enjoying greater collaboration and feedback, a better work-life balance though flexible working, a generally frictionless workplace and an end to information overload.
