As a manager, it’s your job to handle a broad range of issues that affect your workforce—engagement, morale, turnover, and communication, among others. But all these issues are part and parcel of an even greater challenge: Employee productivity, the amount of work your team produces in a given time period.

Every day, your employees complete countless workflows that keep the organisation moving forward. While these workflows tend to stay the same for long periods of time, it’s often beneficial to review them to ensure they’re still properly supporting key business processes and furthering organisational goals. Enter workflow management.

In today’s business world, finding ways to help employees stay productive is essential to profitability. Thankfully, there’s a wealth of technology tools available that promote focus, communication, and collaboration—all of which are drivers of productivity in the workplace.

The start of a new year is a popular time to reflect back and make plans for the years to come. People often celebrate this time of year by planning out their New Year’s resolutions, and your company might well wish to emulate this. Businesses too often only look at the budgets, sales forecasts, and other financial considerations.
