Business Resiliency Solutions - Redesign your workforce and workplace

The need to redefine business resiliency has become stunningly clear in 2020. Yesterday, resiliency meant ensuring that applications and data would be always available and secure. But the 2020 events did not impact applications and data. Instead, they disrupted the workforce and the workplace. Offices closed, the workforce stayed home, and we sprinted to provide access to Online Meetings so work could continue and companies could survive. To thrive in an ever-changing future, we need to redefine business resiliency by reimagining and redesigning our workforce and workplaces for the future of work. Segment due to run for 10 minutes.
