For all its usefulness, modern technology is still no replacement for human, face to face interaction.
Let’s face it, your staff probably spend a lot of time on their mobile phones, and there is not much you can do about it.
Studies have shown that people are spending up to five hours a day on their smartphones, while a third of us keep our phones by our bedside so that we can check emails during the night. Businesses cannot afford to ignore the potential impact of the smartphone on employee productivity.
For employers, this provides a massive opportunity - one of the best ways of capturing the attention and imagination of your employees is through their smartphones. It is worth noting that of those five hours of smartphone activity each day, 90% is spent on apps. That’s very different behaviour to when we sit at a desktop PC, browsing the web. As an employer are you making the most of this opportunity?
