The public sector is frequently seen as ‘playing catchup’ when it comes to adopting modern working practices. To combat this, HM government launched the ‘Transforming for a digital future’ strategy. This strategy plans to improve the way the public sector uses digital solutions and data to provide sleek, efficient services. While plans for the future are promising, how are organisations currently using communication solutions, and how can the public sector ensure that it is not hindering its staff and citizens?
RingCentral, in collaboration with GovNewsDirect, recently conducted a wide-reaching survey to gain an understanding of how public sector organisations are using the latest communications technology.
The survey found that 1 in 5 respondents thought that their communication channels were letting them down (they rated the channels as fair or poor). A further 28% thought that their communication channels were not helping the smarter working practices they had adopted. The findings demonstrate just how behind some employees in the public sector feel regarding digital communication solutions. So, this suggests that legacy solutions could be hindering workforces from enacting smarter working practices. This is just one of the topics explored in the third episode of our podcast series.
The third episode in our brand-new podcast series, ‘Public Sector’s Communication Conundrum’, explores the obstacles facing the public sector in adopting digital communication solutions and fostering smarter ways of working. It highlights the need for a change in culture as well as the appropriate tools to be implemented.
