Location independence: Empowering a hybrid workforce

2

Many of us are no longer tied to one particular “work” location. However, this hybrid working model – where staff are free to perform their daily tasks from any location – brings its own set of challenges: Systems need to be robust, resilient and secure • IT administration needs to be flexible and agile to respond to change quickly • New communication tools need top- down company evaluation and approval • To support location independence, companies must have the infrastructure in place and ensure that staff have access to the tools they need to perform their daily tasks regardless of location. Often, this means embarking on a full digital business transformation. During this process of transformation, companies are increasingly opting for cloud-based collaboration and productivity tools, from multiple best of breed vendors – rather than a single- vendor solution.
