Summary
In this chapter, we assessed the emergence of modern collaboration and its impact on companies going forward. At the very basic, companies need to reason out and carve their path to enable modern collaboration for their future needs. But equally, companies need to imagine the second-order impact of some of the modern collaboration trends. The physical reality of a hybrid workspace, the emergent landscape of smart devices, and the information overload with polarized public opinions all contribute to some of the challenges that companies will need to address while enabling modern collaboration. Seen together with the personas that we laid out in Chapter 6, The Human Risk at the Workplace, you can start to form a picture of how this can cause risk to companies from the inside. In the next chapter, we will try to evaluate these risks and discuss approaches in which we can do that.
