At Asana, we’re committed to supporting our employees as they grow personally and professionally. We believe the best way to support career growth is to provide a framework, benefits, and culture that allows growth to happen. Then, the path to actually getting there is up to them. Growth isn’t linear—but that doesn’t mean it isn’t important. According to the Anatomy of Work Index 2021, global employees want work that is personally and professionally fulfilling.

New year, new you—but same organizational habits? No thank you. If you’ve resolved to be more organized in the new year, you’re not alone—according to the Anatomy of Work Index 2021, being more organized and finishing work on time is one of the top three work resolutions for 2021. But despite the fact that millions of people around the world set New Year’s resolutions, previous surveys have shown that less than 8% of people accomplish them.

Every knowledge worker—all 1.25 billion of them worldwide—has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. And, for many, the abrupt shift to remote work triggered an increase in the adoption of collaboration tools and an acceleration of digital transformations. In 2019, we released our first Anatomy of Work Index to analyze how people spend time at work and the factors shaping those habits.

With the shift to remote work, many teams are feeling the pain of having to search through documents and apps to find the information they need to get work done. While we could once tap colleagues on the shoulder for a quick question or help finding an important project document, we’re now spending more time digging through documents, spreadsheets, and wikis. Switching between apps is not only time-consuming—it’s also hampering team agility.

Last year, we launched the Collaboration Cohort on our social channels to spotlight tried-and-tested tips from global community members like you. We’ve been so inspired by the best practices you’ve shared to support each other and your teams through collaboration, clarity, and mindfulness. As we start the new year, we wanted to share our top 10 #collaborationcohort tips from the past year so you can approach the opportunities ahead with renewed motivation and positive energy.
