A recent poll revealed that office workers still face a barrage of challenges when adjusting to remote work. Almost half of the respondents claimed they needed more tools and resources that would have been available to them in the office and 16% of respondents experienced reduced productivity when working from home.
The productivity resource gap created by these challenges can be filled by the use of modern collaborative technology such as that provided by Microsoft Teams. With the use of software integrating multiple communications and collaboration functionalities, companies can improve productivity and work satisfaction for remote employees.
When it comes to software solutions and add-ons Teams offers a lot to boost productivity. For example, Teams Unified Communication (UC) Connector creates a single communication system, OneNote is easily integrated so employees can access the right information when they need it and Power Automate can be used to set up workflows. Here’s how they can be utilised to boost employee productivity when they are working from home.
