Wireless Technologies and Networks in the Work Environment
During week 3 of our collaborative the discussion led to ways that the company can improve on because every minute counts in a small company and wireless networks are a powerful tool for boosting productivity and encouraging information sharing. With untethered access to documents, emails, applications and other network resources, employees can roam where they need to and have constant access to the tools required to do their jobs. The following are ways that we will need to improve on.
1. Increased mobility and collaboration
2. Improved responsiveness
3. Better access to information
4. Easier network expansion
5. Enhanced guest access
In order to succeed in a business that allows wireless technologies and wireless networks to be used as a tool to enhance their business it must be done properly. This system will enhance the business by allowing your business partners or members the opportunity to connect and roam without losing your connectivity, also allow you to work together more efficiently. Wireless technology connects the information that you need when you want it allowing for better customer service and improve the process of your business. The advantages that come from better collaboration and mobilization also pose some dangers in terms of productivity. While workers are more accessible because of wireless communication, which also means that they 're more able to interrupt meetings by excusing themselves to take phone calls or by clandestinely – or not so clandestinely – checking text messages. Furthermore, while mobilized workers may enjoy the freedom of working from home or at a Starbucks, they 're also more prone to distractions in these places than if they were in a supervised office setting.
