About this talk

68% of companies now believe that the future workforce will be remote*. A hybrid of remote working and reduced office working will be the new reality. On one hand, this could have positive outcomes such as increased productivity for some departments, but on the other hand, it may also negatively impact work/life balance and raise mental health issues. In this session, we will be discussing the changing concept of work, the workplace and the environment that business leaders need to create to thrive in this new world in relation to: • Changes to the physical workplace: Offices may need to be repurposed as drop‐in collaboration centres rather than everyday bases, and use more tech such as VR • Smarter working: With the proliferation of video and web conferencing, how can you enable more productive collaboration tools such as document sharing, annotation and white‐boarding • The importance of security: How to protect the organisation from today's evolving threat landscape especially when the employee's environment is out of your control • What to prioritise to enable your digital workplace: Simplicity and integration are key in this area in order to provide employees with a single, app‐like experience across the tools they use every day Attend this session to solidify your plans and uncover the journey to the new digital workplace. Presented by: Dirk Schlotter, Director Global Real Estate & Supply Chain for Verizon Communications. * 2020 The Future of Work, Reimagining business as usual, Verizon Research report
