We take a look at what agile working is, plus how technology contributes to it.
Agile working refers to the idea of connecting processes, people, technology, time, and place to create a dynamic workforce. By giving workers the freedom and maximum flexibility to work where and when they want, thereby minimising constraints, this can improve productivity and performance. Other results of agile working can include the creation of a more responsive, efficient, and effective organisation that has more balanced, motivated, innovative, and productive teams and individuals working within it.
There are models to help with agile working, such as core and flex and activity-based working.
Whereas flexible working is primarily about working hours, and hybrid working is primarily about the mix of where work is carried out (home or office), agile working is a whole strategy which could include flexible and hybrid as components. Agile working is more about removing traditional barriers and adopting new practices to enable staff to work at their best and most efficiently.
Examples of some of the main challenges to successfully introducing agile working include:
Agile working (being a whole strategy and approach) means that simply buying new technology is not enough, although there are many ways that technology can be used strategically to help to contribute to successful agile working. These include:
Agile working is a commitment to a new way of thinking and operating with the promise of being able to increase the speed and flexibility of the workforce, aimed towards improving productivity, performance, efficiency, and innovation which can all add value and create competitive advantages.
The cloud is a major contributory technology to operating agile working as are many of the agile working tools that operate in it to enable a dynamic approach that is being adopted by progressive businesses.
