It’s a minefield out there ?
Meetings are a necessary part of business, but what isn’t necessary is the amount of time spent arranging them. Meeting room bookings can be a minefield filled with anarchy – just ask your poor receptionist or office manager!
People forget to look at the calendar. They see that the room’s empty so they think it’s free and once inside, it can be difficult for anyone else to work out who booked the room without interruption. Interruptions kill productivity and waste time. Without a clear overview of today’s meetings, you waste space and meeting room resources.
For many companies, a flexible workplace environment with the right management tools is key to their future success. Anything that helps people to book and manage hot desks, huddle rooms, meeting pods or conference rooms effectively and with a constant overview could save thousands of dollars per day and enhance productivity instantly.
End the booking nightmare now ?
With the constant demand for increasing office and workplace productivity, it’s lucky that there is an answer. Meeting scheduling connected to your Outlook, Office 365 or Google Calendar that is displayed for everyone to see.
Here are some of the benefits that come with implementing a digital display solution that provides all of the information you and your team may need.
