Organizations over the past two years made significant technology investments to meet the needs of the rapidly changing workforce. Gartner forecasts that end-user spending on public cloud services will reach $396 billion in 2021 and grow 21.7% to reach $482 billion in 2022.
As investments continue to grow, work is evolving once again. Organizations are tasked with making disparate technology investments of the past few years work in new and innovative ways going forward. This requires a deeper understanding of these technologies to ensure they can support employees’ needs as they transition to a hybrid work environment.
After all, hybrid work is here to stay.
So how can organizations effectively provide equal digital experiences for their employees, regardless of where or how they choose to work — whether that’s in the office, in a remote setting, or some combination of both?

Our eXcellerate virtual series offer access to our thought leaders, customers, and industry experts to gain guidance in order to effectively transform the customer and workplace experience.
