The Edge Power Room Series – Why work insights are the key to building an adaptable workforce of the future?

In a hybrid environment, work has become far more variable. Leaders must understand how work gets done to the last mile, where organizational pain points lie, and identify work patterns that remain hidden in plain sight to unleash the trapped value in the organizations. Work insights hold the key to uncover a deeper understanding of what is contributing to bottlenecks in an organization and act as force multipliers of performance, and productivity.

  • The important role of insights and why it is much more powerful than just data
  • How to reshape the new hybrid workplace by not just tracking productivity but invigorating with new opportunities and meaningful impact
  • How insights-driven work efficiency can help thrive through possible future technology disruptions
