Collaboration and how it affects the Modern Workforce

Although “collaboration” has become a bit of a corporate buzzword, that doesn’t mean that it’s an empty cliche. On the contrary, collaboration in the workplace is what makes teamwork successful. It’s really that simple.

Collaboration is when a group of people come together and contribute their expertise for the benefit of a shared objective, project, or mission. It’s a photographer working with a designer to create a cover image, or a technology department regularly convening with the marketing team to plug away at quarterly goals. In other words, collaboration is the process of group work. But it’s also a learned skill. How well you collaborate with others will greatly impact the outcome of the group project.

A modern workforce, with its diverse and complex ideas and initiatives may not be able to sustain sufficient collaboration through a mere phone call or an email. A well rounded system that enables collaborators to meet, share and create value requires the facilitation of visual, auditory and even tactile input as well as feedback.

In an ideal situation, all these collaborators would meet in one planned location that allows them the comfort, freedom and privacy required by them. However a modern workforce is rarely permitted to do as such, due to geography or -as in prevailing conditions- due to concerns about global health and wellbeing.

The world of business and entrepreneurial word however, does not and will not wait! Neither should you.

If it’s a visual and tactile medium of feedback that your work requires, the technology is there to take to take your team’s input and share it across borders and to anywhere you desire. Our partners Avocor have a series of interactive displays that will not only allow you to have that capability but also enhance your experience with precision tools. Proximity is no longer a hurdle you will have to clear.

If you value the auditory experience; i.e. to have your voice carried clearly across a network or to reliably have your team’s voices reach you, with a headset that is integrated with your collaboration platform; seasoned audio professionals, Jabra has partnered with us to deliver that value to you.

Team members working in collaboration with each other will always have an opportunity to learn from each other’s successes and failures. Give your team every opportunity it needs to collaborate, no matter your size or scale. We at Spectrolite are obsessed with collaboration and how to give our clients the best possible experience when on their journeys to success.
