Adapting your communications technology for a remote workforce
The rules, parameters and routines of the modern workplace are changing, writes Sam Myatt of Network Telecom. Whether your business is operating with an increasingly millennial workforce, hot desking policies or flexible working hours, both remote workers and the option for staff to work remotely are becoming more and more commonplace.
With this shift in behaviour comes a new set of technological challenges. Not least, how do you keep your staff communicating and your business talking if people aren’t actually in the office by the phones?
By looking at the technology you currently have in place, and thinking about how you could implement a Unified Communications strategy, your business can communicate and collaborate anytime, anywhere and on any device.
Using one number across multiple devices, your telecoms set up can combine voice, email, video and instant messaging. Your business mobiles, office phone system, smartphone apps, hosted voice system, WIFI handsets, DECT phones and Computer Integrated Telephony can all talk to each other, offering you one seamless communications solution.
Whether they’re working from home, from a café or from a client’s premises, your staff can enjoy an ‘in office’ experience thanks to a well-considered and unified business telecoms solution. If you are office based, working out and about, or a combination of the two, you can ensure that you are fully equipped to do business wherever the day may take you.
