The rise of collaboration technology: What it is, why teams need it, and keeping it secure

​

​collaboration technology strengthens team relationships, boosts performance, and increases employee retention. The rise of remote work culture will only make these tools more important to achieving business outcomes. Many companies have already shifted to a hybrid work model. This means it will be all the more important for companies to recognize the different modes of collaboration on the rise alongside this shift. There will be many situations that require synchronous communication – for instance, when team members are working in “real time” together on a project or task. Depending on schedules, workloads, and business processes, remote work collaboration might also be asynchronous, where work gets done at different times. This means one person might begin a project or performs the first task in a process, and others carry it through.
