Miscommunication is expensive. Due to high levels of linguistic and cultural diversity within the non-desk workforce, it is crucial that the digital platform you adopt can effectively accommodate many different types of communicators.
Organizations have to cultivate an environment for inclusivity, engagement, and diversity if they want to increase productivity as well as retain more talents.
As mobile workforce demographics reflect more diversity, companies need to implement internal communication strategies that include every single worker.

Life is work.
Work is life.
Life is all about relationships - and work is no exception.
In fact, the key to long-term happiness and fulfillment is “our relationships.”
This is what Harvard's legendary Grant and Glueck Study found out over the last 80 years:

In life, we overwhelmingly add. We like to do ‘more’ rather than ‘less’.
It doesn’t have to be that way.
The other option is to subtract (often overlooked).
There are rewards in less.
Getting to less doesn't mean we're doing less; rather, it's quite the opposite. We do much more thinking when we consider outcomes that involve subtraction because it forces us to think more than we did before when we defaulted to addition-solutions only.
One way to subtract is to stop doing certain things.

I don’t know about you, but I am starting to get a bit tired of those endless discussions about “The Future of Work”.
Much of that debate centers around technology and WHERE we perform our work.

The Future Of Work is human and must be humane.
It is more about people than location!
Now is the time to take a fresh look at the employer/employee relationship and the fitting tool to strengthen that relationship.

What can we do differently to do better in engaging our employees?
Many bosses believe that valuable knowledge is concentrated in a very few heads. They assume that the key to making good decisions is finding that one right person who will have the answer.
The “genius” of the organization NEVER resides completely in management!
The best ideas will often come from far-flung corners of the community.
We are likely to incur an “ignorance tax” when we fail to consult the crowd before making important decisions.
