- 2. 2 Technology Technology is a swift evolving creature, endlessly producing more efficient generations of applications, software and devices with direct workplace uses. This digital progeny has transformed the traditional workplace into a virtual space for employees to collaborate and work more effectively. Systems engineer, Leigh Geary, discusses the key role of smartphones in the evolving digital workplace. info@live)les.nyc @LiveTilesUI www.live)les.nyc

Through his research of various mobile devices and their functionalities, he has gained a broad understanding of smartphones’ adaptability within the work environment.
- 4. 4info@live)les.nyc @LiveTilesUI www.live)les.nyc From Geary’s perspective,the core of the digital workplace is an ability to provide individuals with mobile access and tools—wherever they are. He’s had experience with network applications, such as Citrix, that initially were developed for desktop use but since have been updated for use across multiple devices. He also has enjoyed watching Outlook expand to tablets and smartphones, another example of traditional software that was upgraded with universal capabilities for all devices.
- 5. 5info@live)les.nyc @LiveTilesUI www.live)les.nyc Many professionals just like Gearywork in po- sitions that require frequent travel and remote company access. Natu- rally, he appreciates the ability to travel as “light” as possible, without briefcases brimming with heavy laptops that are becoming obsolete. Let’s face it: carry-on space is limited and precious. Newer technology has introduced tablets and mobile devices that contain the same func- tionalities as older devices, but are more compact and include web- based applications. Geary believes digital work is developing in the direction of being per- formed via a web connection. Take Office 365, for example—a web- based platform with cloud access across multiple devices. This kind of software advancement allows you to work on your office laptop, then resume that same assignment right where you left off, whether you’re in a car stuck in traffic, or in bed on your tablet.

Today, that can mean anything from being able to connect virtually with colleagues via Skype, or having the ability to pick up your lightweight device and sit down with a team member in a separate department. This mobility en- hances the work environment and produces seamless connec- tions in contrast to the outdated, rigid cubicle work culture. For example, when Geary recently visited Vodafone Headquarters, he saw employees working around the entire company campus. He notes that this shift is an integral part of collaboration, and reflects on the technological advancements in mobile compatibility. According to Geary, devices are replacing the traditional “heavy weight” desk- top PC. Now workers can work together through a web window.
- 7. 7info@live)les.nyc @LiveTilesUI www.live)les.nyc Although it is universally felt that everyone is connected through our pocket devices, Geary notes that actual communication still can get lost. For example, he sees Outlook mailboxes overwhelmed with incoming emails, and the common follow-up question, ‘did you see my email?’ still chimes around the workplace. With the new developments, people now can utilize a complementing application such as Skype to commu- nicate, whether that’s through video, phone calls or messages. These immediate connection options are tools that are critical to efficient and cohesive communication between and within company departments. Through his time specializing in the field, Geary states that he seen the mobile phone transform into a modern productivity machine. Recently, when he took a trip to cover the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, he brought nothing more than his phone and light- weight laptop, and was able to access his office with ease.
