Business continuity at the comfort and safety of one’s home with Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise
It has been a week since the government officially announced a community quarantine in all of Luzon due to COVID-19. People are instructed to stay inside their homes in hopes to control the virus transmission and prevent the numbers from increasing. This change might be sudden, but it is undeniable that the economy is already experiencing drastic repercussions due to this global crisis.
What keeps the national economy afloat are the businesses that were taken at home. Remote work is now more than an employee perk as it seems to be the only option that prevents operations from ceasing and helps in promoting business continuity even in these unusual times. The challenge, however, is finding the right strategy to effectively implement the setup to ensure productivity and orchestrated communication among employees.
“In essence, good communication is a constant need. Right now, we need to unite and find ways on how to always keep in touch with everyone,” said Kit Andal, Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, Country Manager – Philippines. “This is where technology comes into play. Now that companies are currently in a remote work setup, it is technology that enables them to easily adapt to the situation. More importantly, it enables teams to be on the same page and keep things moving,” he added.
Companies must equip its employees with innovative tools to help them efficiently carry out their tasks. The ease of use of such tools is also significant to allow maximum productivity and make the experience as natural as possible. It is also recommended to invest in cost-effective, functional, and highly collaborative platform since emails, group chats, online meetings, audio and video calls and conference will be the cornerstone to impactful remote work.
