Lexmark operates in an industry that is constantly and rapidly changing, so business
agility is key to survival and prosperity. True agility requires ongoing information
sharing and collaboration across the entire enterprise, which means that we must
provide our employees with the ability, opportunity and motivation to collaborate.
We have found that three interlocking components are essential for this.

…
In Practice Case page 34 in The Digital Workplace in the Connected Organization.
ā€œ
ā€œA flexible BYOD device policy and cloud-based applications make it easy for
users to access our systems whenever and wherever they need to.
Flexible HR policies give employees the freedom to work on their own terms.
For years we have had a liberal work policy that lets many employees decide
when and how often they work from home versus coming in to the office.
We deployed our social platform in 2012, and want our employees to ā€œwork out
loudā€ – to work in a transparent, sharing environment. It can be a difficult
transition shifting from emails with file attachments to wikis and discussion
threads, so we try to find as many different ways as possible to bring people into
the system…. When a social platform is full of engaged employees, the results
can be powerful.

In Practice Case page 34 in The Digital Workplace in the Connected Organization.
ā€œIn late 2012 Hurricane Sandy hit New York. Its subways were flooding
and our client issued a call to Arup for help.
Despite being home bound, the Director who received the call posted a
message across the forums asking how other cities had coped in
similar situations.
Overnight, responses came in from Manila, London, Brisbane, Tokyo,
San Francisco, Hamburg, Dublin and Singapore. Rich, detailed
explanations with photos of solutions.
A presentation was given to the client’s chair the following lunchtime
and their trust in our services soared.
They remain delighted to pay our fee because our people working
together provide a service that is second to none.

    ā€œ ā€œA flexible BYODdevice policy and cloud-based applications make it easy for users to access our systems whenever and wherever they need to. Flexible HR policies give employees the freedom to work on their own terms. For years we have had a liberal work policy that lets many employees decide when and how often they work from home versus coming in to the office. We deployed our social platform in 2012, and want our employees to ā€œwork out loudā€ – to work in a transparent, sharing environment. It can be a difficult transition shifting from emails with file attachments to wikis and discussion threads, so we try to find as many different ways as possible to bring people into the system…. When a social platform is full of engaged employees, the results can be powerful.

    ā€œIn late 2012Hurricane Sandy hit New York. Its subways were flooding and our client issued a call to Arup for help. Despite being home bound, the Director who received the call posted a message across the forums asking how other cities had coped in similar situations. Overnight, responses came in from Manila, London, Brisbane, Tokyo, San Francisco, Hamburg, Dublin and Singapore. Rich, detailed explanations with photos of solutions. A presentation was given to the client’s chair the following lunchtime and their trust in our services soared. They remain delighted to pay our fee because our people working together provide a service that is second to none. ā€œ Adam Pope Senior Librarian, Arup In Practice Case page 34 in The Digital Workplace in the Connected Organization.
