Work from Any Place at Any Time

Work no longer has to be a place your employees go at a certain time. Learn what technologies can enable your employees to get more done from any location, any time.

Lately there has been a trend among companies, no matter what size and maturity, toward the use of so-called “virtual” teams. Driven perhaps by rising office and energy costs, maturity of computing and network technologies, talent scarcity, or simply the opportunity to realize increased efficiency,  this has resulted in the adoption of flexible work arrangements for some employees including flexible time and working from home – or even from remote locations in different time zones.

Along with this trend has come the need to support this new way of working. A wealth of options exists—from virtual team spaces and online collaborative tools to more advanced communication devices such as smartphones and tablets. Here are a few examples.

For teams working at the same time but from different locations:

• Conferencing applications—via telephone or video
• Shared workspaces and whiteboards
• Instant messaging
• Wireless communication devices

For teams working at different times but in the same place:

• Team rooms
• Intranets

For teams working at different times and from different places:

• Extranets
• Virtual Private Networks
• E-mail/Groupware
• Message boards
• Blogs and knowledgebase tools

With the right tools, work can happen any time and from any place. Interested? Get in touch with us and find out more.
