The workforce is getting ever more mobile. In the UK alone, two thirds of employees now work from home at least once a month. There is also a demographic change underway, as the representation of Millennials increases. In fact, Deloitte predicts this demographic will make up 75 percent of the global workforce by 2025.
This new generation of workers expects greater flexibility in the workplace, presenting CEOs, HR teams, board directors and IT departments with significant cultural and technological challenges. There have never been so many opportunities for international teams to collaborate and, as such, employers must reassess their current working cultures in order to facilitate the latest developments and increase employee productivity.
