Nobel Biocare is one of the leaders in the field of innovative implant-based dental restorations from single-tooth to fully edentulous indications.
I come from a generation where we have seen complete transformation in every aspect of technology, digitalization and commercial development in business strategies. The first lesson from all that's taken place in the last ten years is the power of having a game-changing frame of mind.
There is rapid transformation that is driven by technology. Yet all change in society and business these days is impacted by some level of technology. Companies with a remote staff have the opportunity to save money and invest in training. The term `smart working' allows individuals the freedom to work away from the office, at home, local café, or as they travel. This will enable employees to stay connected no matter where they are located across the globe.
To meet the challenges of modern workforce employers have to adapt to flexible work arrangements. Offering greater flexibility could result in higher company satisfaction, productivity, and engagement among millennial employees. As a result, the rise of working from home and flexible hours has led to an increased investment in Skype or video conferencing chats. However, younger millennials are keen on being productive outside the traditional nine to five job and working anywhere with Wi-Fi.
While the nature of the workplace has changed dramatically within the past decade, the advancement in technology is moving faster than ever. It is estimated that technology will continue to increase in the years to come. This will impact every aspect of management from how businesses retain and attract employees to how employees communicate and collaborate.
Due to the powerful advancements in communication and technology, moving the physical workplace online will enable the millennial generation to combine life between work and home, as well as achieve balance in both. While our human needs are to be social and collaborate as a team, balancing flexibility and discipline is the key to a successful remote workplace.
At the same time, Digital Business has become universally acknowledged as a critical issue and is a much more complex picture, involving every aspect of business functionality. New developments making their mark today were barely on the digital radar then, including blockchain technology, AI, robotics, machine learning and genetics.

Social media has a crucial role to play catering to the needs of today's employee and of course an efficient workforce.

Boon for some, bane for others it is imperative to understand that automation, when applied strategically can yield significant results.
