The ‘New’ Office
In 2022 the debate may continue about where employees work. However, Omdia’s data show that businesses plan for more work to occur away from the traditional office environment.
In fact, it seems the conversation has moved forward as businesses focus instead on infrastructure. Specifically, managers should develop the kind of infrastructure where employees can work anywhere without compromises to security or productivity. It’s the difference between “reacting” versus “reinvention.”
“Businesses must now begin to focus less on work locations, and more on ensuring they have the right infrastructure, tools, processes and practices in place to help employees work from anywhere,” Holtby said.
