Revealed: Technology Really Works!

摘要

THIS PAST YEAR was most unusual, distracting and challenging, and many of those distractions and challenges appear they will remain with us well into the first half of the year. As industry begins to focus on post-pandemic planning, however, much has been learned over the past year that can and is being applied to planning for the future. Possibly the most significant thing learned is technology can - and does - work! A generation of manufacturing and technology leaders knew little of platforms such as Zoom, WebEx, etc. Through baptism by fire, we have become believers in virtual interaction, its effectiveness and value. Equally significant is the realization that for many business functions, including those in manufacturing, remote working - aka working from home - works and offers much more flexibility than the traditional structured workplace.
