Fortunately, there are many types of tools to collaborate, facilitate these exchanges and be more productive. We'll guide you!

 

Tools to support digital transformation: instant messaging 

In recent years, instant messaging has become one of the essential digital tools for employees. It is often complementary to "traditional" internal communication tools. The objective of instant messaging is to provoke short and efficient exchanges between employees who are not necessarily physically together. Instead of telephoning or travelling, employees who use instant messaging do not hesitate to communicate via this channel, even if they are only a few metres apart.

The benefits: practicality on the move, instantaneous exchanges
