Filling the Need for Ongoing Digital Workplace Education
The realm of employee experience and the digital workplace has been in a constant state of growth and change for more than a decade. The evolution of the space has been exciting to watch, but it’s also been challenging to keep up with all the changing technology needs, especially during the ongoing pandemic.
Thankfully, having access to reliable, practical guidance and advice has made it possible for organizations, tech providers and practitioners to work together to improve and reimagine the way we work, both today and in the future.
