Modern offices are changing from quiet
cubicles to open—and noisy—spaces that
hinder clear communication.
The way people work is changing, and companies are changing their workspaces to keep up. Employers are arming their workers with technologies to make communication in new, noisy environments intuitive and enjoyable.
Smart companies are finding that you can get more productivity from less space: Open-plan layouts supported by Unified Communications encourage collaboration and what we call “Smarter Working.” This holistic approach redefines the workplace to support communication, collaboration, and concentration.
Noise pollution can have a big impact on employee productivity. Managing audio in an open office is critical. Workers need singular control over multiple devices to communicate and collaborate. They need to easily manage a desk phone, PC, and mobile phone—so that they can focus on work instead of fiddling with gadgets.
Great audio equipment that works seamlessly with any device makes the goal of Unified Communications a reality. Employees need an immersive audio experience powered by our highly engineered, technically advanced headsets to help them concentrate in a noisy open space. If your employees can’t work with ease and comfort, your UC rollout won’t meet expectations.
