Communication and Collaboration in a digital age

Christoph Magnussen

Collaborating and communicating successfully within a team or a company has always been instrumental to the success of the goals and the innovative process. Never has it been as vital as now to ensure that communication and collaboration is not only possible, but is used effectively, in times of home office, remote working and digital tool overload. What lies behind effective communication and collaboration in a digital age? Where do we need to place our focus in order to maintain effective collaboration in times of social distancing?
