Employee work environments have evolved. The personalized, digital workplace is re-imagining the way we can now work using Sitecore.
We all know that the Coronavirus pandemic forced businesses to invest in technologies that helped employees to continue working from anywhere they could. We had to keep adapting, there was no choice, or the business would fail. So personalized applications, services and collaboration tools were introduced to enable this transition, to working on any device, from anywhere at any time. This became known as the Digital Workplace.
Microsoft™ define this as:
“The digital workplace includes all the technologies people use to get work done in today’s workplace…It ranged from your HR applications and core business applications to email, instant messaging and enterprise social media tools and virtual meeting tools
Many businesses decided to turn to their intranets as a source for continuing production and keep the business wheels turning. But did they deliver what employees needed and was it possible to use this time to evolve?
We know the standard intranet didn’t pay enough attention to:
- Increasing productivity and efficiency
- Employee preferences
- Providing personalised experiences
- Engaging experiences
- Focusing on collaboration between employees
Take a look at how traditional intranets compare to the digital workplace:
This clearly shows how the digital workplace has evolved over this time to deliver a much more engaging space from which employees can work. Based on this comparison it's clear that Sitecore is the right platform to construct the Personalized Digital Workplace.
