‘What tool when?’ – helping employees to navigate the digital workplace and optimize their use of tools
The workplace is evolving rapidly, with an array of tools and platforms designed to streamline communication and collaboration. From email to enterprise social networks, from Microsoft Teams to Slack, the options seem endless. However, with this abundance of choices comes confusion and frustration for many employees. The question often arises: which tool is best suited for the task at hand?
Imagine you’re tasked with brainstorming ideas for an upcoming project. Should you turn to Miro, nexBoard, or perhaps another whiteboarding tool? Or maybe you need to seek out a colleague’s expertise. But where do you look – Delve, the intranet, or an HR platform? The list goes on and on, leaving many feeling overwhelmed and unsure.
This is where digital workplace and communications teams come into play, providing clear guidance to help end-users navigate the complexity of this digital ecosystem, enabling them to easily select the right tool for each job. Productivity and efficiency can then increase as a result, while also fostering better adoption and utilization of these tools.
In DWG’s report, What tool when? Helping users make the most of digital workplace tools, we tackle the common challenge of employees feeling confused and frustrated about which digital tools to use for various tasks. You’ll learn how digital workplace teams can support users in maximizing the potential of available apps and tools based on their specific needs.
The report offers digital workplace teams a blueprint to follow to obtain:
- Strategic clarity: Gain a clear understanding of the digital workplace landscape.
- Governance and ownership: Establish appropriate models for digital tools within your organization.
- Digital dexterity support: Provide resources and easily consumable learning content.
- Tool catalogues and guides: Access tool catalogues or finder examples to help employees identify the tools they need.
Our report goes beyond theory, providing practical guidance and case studies that showcase best practices in action including visuals and step-by-step decision trees, with real-world examples from organizations like UNHCR, Richemont, Vattenfall, The Coca-Cola Company and HAVI.
