has rightfully entered among those realities that have the greatest impact on our daily lives.
Certainly the recent Covid-19 pandemic has had its share of responsibility, but denying that it was a process already underway would mean denying the reality of the facts.
The truth, in fact, is that the possibility of being able tocarry out one's work tasks remotelyhas in a certain way reinvented work itself as it had always been understood, but obviously, like all new things, some points regarding specifically the productivity.
In other words, is it possible to work from home while maintaining the same performance as in the usual workplace? And if so, through which tools? face="Poppins">
Let's find out.
The fundamental tools for quality smart workingWhat does company mean? You could respond by providing a classic textbook definition according to which a company means an organization composed of subjects and economic assets in a dynamic structure both functional to the achievement of certain economic objectives.
on what it means to do business and how this can no longer ignore an adequate and appropriate digitalization process.
It will be a topic that we will develop more exhaustively in the next paragraphs, for now it is sufficient to state that the success of smart working on the corporate side is directly proportional to its degree of digitalisation.
But on the user side? What are the essential tools?
- Company computer. One of those key objects to be able to carry out work tasks remotely in full efficiency. It is not unusual for some workers to prefer to use their own personal PC, but a self-respecting company that wants a certain excellence of results from its employees cannot endorse a similar choice.
- Software updated. Completing certain jobs by relying on old versions of the software in use is certainly not impossible, but considering that each update brings functional improvements and that very often these updates are released in conjunction with security patches, having updated software is undoubtedly the best choice. Similar story, needless to say, regarding the operating system in use and the various basic protections.
- Quick Connect. Working remotely essentially means replicating as much as possible in the home or family environment the same work performances recorded in the workplace and is an unattainable goal without an adequate fast connection. This obviously does not mean that a smart worker will have to have a dedicated, possibly symmetrical, corporate connection at home or in a third-party environment, but that it is as fast and stable as possible is an essential requirement. padding-left: 15px; overflow-wrap: break-word;">
The main business tools for quality smart working
So far we have talked about the end user in his approach to remote work, but this does not mean that the company itself is exempt from all responsibility, on the contrary.Imagine for a moment a company that is not digitized or partially digitized in aspects and/or functional factors and is forced to have its employees work remotely from one day to the next.
Essentially different things, but first of all we have the digitization of processesand then continue with specific KPI monitoring tools, collaboration tools and technologies in cloud.
It may perhaps seem brutal in its sincerity, but the statement according to which the non-digitalised company is not and will never be able to do smart working is the pure and simple reality of the facts.
In addition to cloud solutions, an area which includes various realities including cloud storage, videoconferencing and the virtual desktop, of particular importance is the use of mobile apps management. Let's start answering the first question. Among the main uses we have: What would be the final result?
What does the company need to do smart working or, better said, to allow its workers to do smart working?
What can applications of this type be used for and are they really that functional?
Turn Management
Corporate fleet management
Timesheet management
Expense report management
Publishing employee documentation
What do you think? Do these seem like factors that can positively influence company productivity and at the same time facilitate the execution of work tasks for the employee? Certainly yes.
If you then want to ascertain the truth regarding their actual usefulness in smart working, you just need to know that mobile management apps, also thanks to the fact that they are perfectly integrated with the main reference platforms, are on average able to guarantee an average increase of 15% in terms of productivity.
