For over 25 years, the company Intranet has been a private online network for employees and authorized users to communicate, engage in collaborative projects, and develop content. Over time, it has become the centralized source of truth and a repository for company knowledge.

Since we live in a digital world where data has surpassed the value of oil and became the most valuable resource in the world, we start to question our digital security.

Or is it just a bit more complicated than that.. 🤔 The reality is that teams consist of different people with different characters, experiences, and knowledge. Effective team collaboration was never easy to achieve – and this mission has grown even harder since remote work abruptly became a reality for many.

And, in the last year, 7 in 10 workers experienced burnout. To rethink work and life in the new normal, we sat down with Adam Grant at our recent Focus & Flow Summit.

Hybrid work calls for tools that are built to quickly switch between in-person and remote collaboration. This is true for both emerging companies and large, globally distributed teams, who need access to tools and resources that can carry over from the conference room to a video meeting. That’s why we’re excited to announce the first of several upcoming integrations with Cisco Webex: Miro for Webex Messaging.
