Dynamic workforce communication is a critical tool for many brands. Today’s businesses, particularly as COVID-19 has changed the way we live, have workers in more places than ever–and they need dynamic communication tools that make it easy for them to get in touch with their colleagues regardless of where they are. Does your business have the communication tools it needs to bring all of your workers together?
Workers are Spread Out Geographically
The average corporate office now has workers in a wide range of places. Around 71% of workers worked from home full-time throughout the pandemic. As many workers start to move back toward more traditional work responsibilities, many offices are offering hybrid options: that is, people have the option to work either from the office or from home. Many dynamic communication workplaces are also discovering the benefits of hiring fully remote workers, including the ability to connect with the best workers from across the country, rather than being focused on a specific geographic region. As a result, it’s now uncommon for all employees to be in the office at the same time–and some employees may never come in at all.
Then there are the natural demands of corporate jobs. Some employees may need to be out in the field regularly: visiting clients, taking meetings, or observing job sites. Those employees may have to check in with the office regularly, but they may not be there for the bulk of the day.
Changing the Dynamic Communication Game
Communicating with employees at a geographic distance has never been easier. Thanks to solutions like Pronto, more businesses than ever can take advantage of the ability to connect employees no matter where they are: in the office, in the field, or at home. You need dynamic workforce communication solutions that fit the needs of your corporate environment–and Pronto delivers.
Easy File Sharing
When employees need access to those critical files necessary to complete their latest report or answer a client’s questions, they don’t want to have to wait until they can get to the office to answer those questions. With easy file sharing, however, all employees have easier access to the information they need at their fingertips. With apps like Pronto, which offer mobile accessibility, employees can easily access that information when they’re in the field or in a meeting, which may make it easier for them to handle challenges that may arise at client sites.
Streamlined Workforce Communication
Gone are the days when you can afford to wait for an answer to an email, especially if the person who needs to answer it is out of the office or doesn’t work on a traditional schedule. Instead, you need communication apps and solutions that will allow you to connect with other employees quickly and effectively. Instead of having to wait for employees to check their emails, you can send out a direct message through the app, which employees can see and respond to immediately.
Workforce Connection to All Members of the Team
There are times when you need to bring every member of the team together for a meeting, whether you need to collaborate on a project or you want to share information that can impact every member of the team. Video conferences and meetings make it easy to bring everyone together on the same platform. They also make it simple to record conversations and connections so that members of the team who couldn’t be there in person during the meeting itself can review that content later when it’s convenient for them.
Easy Announcements and Tracking
Making announcements to every member of the team is simpler than ever when you use a communication app like Pronto. Not only can you send out team-wide or company-wide announcements that will reach every member of the team, but you can also check to see who has read those notifications and make sure that everyone has access to the necessary data. For corporate workers, especially those in the office, this can prove essential to managing employees.
Put a Face on Your Communications
In addition to the other benefits offered by an effective communication app, Pronto can put a face on your dynamic workforce communications. Video messages are quick and easy to send, which means employees will be able to put a face on those messages, which can deepen their connection to one another and make them feel more like a team even when they are far apart.
