Meeting rooms take center stage in Australian hybrid workplaces
Meeting barometer drops as people struggle with virtual collaboration , on the impending return to the office .
In its newest , international survey , Barco Clickshare , a global leader in visualization and collaboration solutions , has surveyed the engagement and needs of Australian employees in meetings and identified five key trends that business decision makers simply cannot afford to ignore when preparing for a flexible , future fit hybrid workplace .
The trends , which are highlighted in Outlook For The Post-Covid Workplace , include :
• Office optimism returns . Back to office scenarios are not only pushed by C-level management , they are completely in line with what employees want . More than half of the workforce is ready to return and 92 % were expected to be back in the office one or more days by the end of June 2021 . They want to work less from home than six months ago ( two days in 2020 – 1.5 days in 2021 ).
• The Barco Meeting Barometer takes a plunge as people struggle with an overload of virtual meetings . An index of – 25 , compared to + 17 in 2020 and + 63 in 2019 , clearly shows that meetings deteriorate . 54 % feel remote collaboration does not come naturally .
BACK TO OFFICE
SCENARIOS ARE NOT ONLY PUSHED BY C-LEVEL MANAGEMENT , THEY ARE COMPLETELY IN LINE WITH WHAT EMPLOYEES WANT .
