It's nearly 3x more likely that a company is rated as a Digital Transformation Leader* when fully empowering employees.
*Pioneers plus leaders
Empowered employees in firms who make apps available and highly accessible report:
- 17% less time spent on manual processes
- 16% increase in team collaboration
- 16% faster decision making
Empowered employees, compared to traditional employees, are more likely by nearly:
- 5 x to report gain in personal productivity
- 4 x to report their company us a more desirable place to work
- 2 x to report that apps are very important in accelerating decision-making in the company
Empowered employees, compared to traditional employees, project for their firms:
- 34% greater increase in effciency
- Almost 2x the increase in service quality
- HR efficiencies for recruiting (69%) and onboarding of new employees (59%)
Plus, 87% of all CIOs surveyed believe that digitally empowering their employees can drive at least 5% additional revenue growth over 3 years.
CIOs and employees share very different views, both in where their companies are versus peers in providing technology to employees, and about the availability, utility, and freedom to use employee technologies at work.
This indicates a degree of disappointment by employees, and a complacency in CIOs which can lead to a dangerous disconnect that may impact a firm’s performance.
