Technology

Good morning and happy Monday!  It's been a while since I have posted - I'm back!  My husband and I went to Paris, London and Munich for two weeks, it was incredible! 

As the office continues to evolve, technology plays a key role of support to employees.  Whether you work for a law firm, real estate, architecture, etc. the technology component is always changing, and it's a must to keep up.

Some of the trends we are noticing in workspaces today are:

• Electronic workrooms
• Connectivity - employees relay on virtual technology's and social media to maintain a large informal network of connection
• Videoconferencing - fixed and mobile
• Smart surfaces
• Increase in technology staff
• Increased digital document storage systems
• Visualization - the ability to display and manipulate concepts, data, drawings, maps, etc. to aid discussion and understanding

Access to and ability to display data and information, conference phones, videoconferencing, presentation equipment, multimedia, wireless Internet access, laptops, etc. are all examples of technology.  Which form of technology do you wish your office had?

Have a great day!
