Covid-19 recoveryCovid-19 recovery
As a result of the pandemic, every business was forced into a new way of working with very little notice which seems like it is here to stay. When Covid hit, remote working was imperative for businesses to acclimatize to, to ensure complete business continuity. Now we are on the recovery from Covid, hybrid working is arguably a greater challenge. How can businesses ensure seamless productivity and collaboration between colleagues, teams, different departments whilst at the same time reassuring users that there information and company data is safe and secure when using any device from any location.
This is where Crayon have a wealth of experience and expertise to help customers navigate a potentially tricky path to having a successful hybrid working culture. This is why Crayon start with a Modern Work Assessment with various stakeholders from the business to truly understand from the outset, what is the desired objectives and what will making working easier by leveraging the technology available to them.
Off the back of the output we produce from the modern work assessment, we will put together what we think is the best approach to achieve the objectives set out over the next 12-24 months. Crayon will ensure everyone is happy with the designed approach with regular reviews through out the engagement. The important piece here is to make sure every employee has the same user experience whether they are working from home, in the office or from a coffee shop. Hybrid meetings need to be great experience for everyone which requires investing in hardware, software and culture.
Crayon have all the tools and experience to assist customers to adopt and embrace hybrid working to drive business success.
