control and manage my budget and

cash flow

• Productivity: My employees are

demanding more tools to make their

lives easier?

• Customers: I need to find better

ways to engage with my customers?

of something new stops me from even

considering a change!

The VirtualWorkplace

Steven HarrisonLead Technologist - Exponential-e

Workplace of the future?

Some of the challenges of mobility or other flex-work programs are that we’re reluctant to treat workers differently for fear of “fairness” issues, and we’re not very good at managing, let alone managing remote workers. Too many managers rely on attendance and time at one’s desk instead of setting explicit expectations and mastering other management practices needed to make internal (inside the building) or external (anywhere else) mobility work for both the employer and the employee. –Jan Jonson - VP Design and Workplace Resources at Allsteel

Or Worker of the future?

It’s all about the Interface

In 2002, the film Minority Report predicted seven technologies that took less than 10 years to become reality: Heads-Up augmented reality displays (Google Glass), controller-less input (Microsoft Kinect), automated driving (Google Drive), flexible displays (Plastic Logic), Real-time facial recognition (on most smartphones), intelligent targeted advertising (online), autonomous micro drones (BAE Robobugs).
