Flexible working can reduce your office space costs using Cisco collaboration tools
- 80 percent agreed that more employees are now working remotely on a regular basis
- 74 percent said that at least a third of staff work away from the office at least once a week
- 78 percent said that workers are now measured on their outcomes and outputs, rather than how many hours they spend at work
Organisations will have the need to bring employees and teams together from time to time, which opens up the potential for organisations to be much bolder in making more flexible use of their office space than they perhaps have been up to now. We are not suggesting you go entirely virtual and abandon the concept of having a central office or location that acts as the hub and focal point for your organisation. But we do think many more organisations could look at reducing their real estate. Capture the opportunity as collaboration moves to the cloud The marketing for business communications and collaboration solutions is quickly moving to the cloud, which represents a once-in-a-generation technology shift. This is where Cisco Webex Calling allows cloud calling and unified communications. How Cisco Webex can help
- A more responsive workforce
- Greater productivity from its mobile workforce
- 53 percent reduction in time spent by IT managing their phone system, for businesses adopting a cloud UCaaS service
Huge benefits The benefits of reducing the amount of space needed within a central location are huge. As well as lower lease/rental, costs for heating, lighting, security, insurance, maintenance and so on, will be reduced significantly. For employees, travel time and expenses will be cut massively. You may have done some of this and introduced some flexible space already, but could you be doing more? We think it will be a real possibility for many organisations. With the right productivity, mobile and collaboration technology in place, you should be to enable individuals and teams to work just as effectively at remote locations or on the move as they can when they are in the office.
