Digital transformation is fundamentally shifting the way companies do business and empower their employees. It requires delivering a modern workplace designed to meet evolving employee expectations, to connect a more widely distributed workforce, and to manage an increasingly complex digital landscape.
Digitization, demographic change and an abundance of data have left an indelible imprint on the modern workplace. By the end of 2018, 66% of Global 2000 CEOs will have digital transformation at the heart of their corporate strategy with the aim of spurring new growth. In the next several years, more than 50% of the workforce will be made up of millennials, championing more open collaborative workspaces, a greater sense of purpose, and a deeper connection to their company’s mission.
A majority of workers say that they’re having more meetings than they did 10 years ago, and more than half of those meetings (56%) are now either virtual or a combination of virtual and inperson. But are meetings getting better? We surveyed more than 3,000 people across geographies and generations to better understand the biggest problems with everyday meetings and how they can be resolved.
Most employees, on average, spend between 9 to 13 hours in meetings every week. With your teams facing these sorts of demands on their time, finding ways to cultivate new ideas can be a challenge.
Employees spend an average of 10 hours each week in meetings, but research involving more than 800 business leaders tells us that the more digital our world becomes, the more employees need that connection with other team members. They also want meetings to be structured, authenticated, and facilitated through advanced technologies that help participants to connect more easily with those attending remotely.
