The Traditional Workspace

Companies that do not provide employees with the technology they need to do their jobs effectively.

Image

The Transitioning Workspace

Companies that provide the apps workers want and need, but don’t yet make them easily accessible.

Image

The Digital Workspace

Companies that provide the apps workers want and need, and make them readily accessible anywhere, anytime and on any device.

3. Making business apps highly accessible from any device powers a real difference.

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

4. Empowered employees expect greater success at enterprise level.

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.

5. There is misalignment between employees and CIOs.

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.
