The Conference Room

PeopleNatural Interaction
When we need to accomplish something, coming together for a face to face meeting is widely viewed as the most productive way to get things done
What is in the conference room?
TableWhy is this the case?
Face to Face Meetings are not Always Easy
79% of knowledge workers are a part of some form of virtual team
Travel is Disruptive and Expensive
Doing more with less can mean more meetings
So what happens when meetings are not Face to Face?
We spend a lot of time being distracted
We spend time sitting on conference calls - waiting for them to start
We spend a lot of time searching for things and then emailing them
25 Hours / Week
The Impact is profound:
75% feel distracted during remote meetings50% feel overwhelmed by collaboration technology
90% are suffering from email overload
The tools we use are not keeping up
Many are built around email or voice - not social
Adding more tools isn't solving the problem
The more meetings you have the less productivity you get
We need a New Way to Work
We need virtual meetings to be more like real meetings
We need take back the time we spend pushing email
We need to align our technology with natural
interaction
