Are you ready to implement a telecommuting program? It’s easier than you think!
Join Peter Nutley, TANDBERG’s Director of Product Marketing and Bruce Zieper, TANDBERG’s Sr. Product Manager to learn about:
- The business drivers and social trends that are leading corporations to deploy video conferencing solutions for telecommuting programs.
- The challenges come organizations face when implementing a telecommuting program.
- Best practices on how to successfully implement a program and how to leverage technology to help your employees stay better connected.
All signs are pointing to a rising interest in telecommuting! According to the Journal of Corporate Recruiting, by 2009 one quarter of the world’s workforce (approximately 850 million people) will work remotely. In order to attract and retain today’s top talent, organizations now need to provide flexible work environments. As more companies adopt telecommuting programs, they are finding that video conferencing has become an essential tool for their home-based employees.
Video-enabled communications allows telecommuters and other remote workers to maintain a visual connection with their workplace and to feel less removed from the center of activity. Video also builds a 90% higher level of trust and reduces confusion or misunderstandings by 81% which is more than other form of communication*! And with the soaring gas prices and environmental concerns, less time on the road is more money in your workers’ pocket and is doing less damage to the environment.
This is not yesterday’s work from home experience. This is visual telecommuting…where natural, face-to-face interaction is a critical part of success!
