If asked to select a word to describe the experience of the past two years, a large proportion of business leaders would undoubtedly go for ‘disrupted’. But, as initially temporary remote working practices become business-as-usual for an increasing number of organizations worldwide, many are now thinking of a different word altogether… ‘opportunity.’
Indeed, a study of CIO attitudes conducted by Vanson Bourne in 2021 found 87% of technology leaders now agree that all organizations should be adopting a digitalfirst ethos. When the top business benefits of adopting a hybrid working model are considered, we can see why so many hold this view: over half (52%) report an increase in productivity, and 56% point to an increase in employee satisfaction and wellbeing.
Of course, for different organizations, the facilitation of hybrid working has different meanings. There are those that enable their workforce to operate from anywhere as a choice, and those that enable it as a necessary contingency but prefer on-site working whenever possible. In either scenario, leaders understand that the ability to “work from anywhere” must be seamless to ensure the best outcomes for the organization – a resounding 96% of CIOs interviewed are looking to support this capability.
