Digital transformation is accelerating. Digital disruption is real. According to Innosight research, half of the companies on today’s S&P 500 will be replaced over the next 10 years.

Assess your landscape.
The start of this decade has created a whole new competitive landscape. Home offices and distributed workforces are the norm. Doctors’ offices, banks, financial advisors - even restaurants - have had to stand up entirely new operating and engagement environments. Customer expectations are up and are changing. And the future of work is calling.
Where many organizations are now may feel far from where they need to be, but the right long-term technology choices now can help businesses run while others walk. Open platforms, for example, help connect people, processes and technology - and even streamline best-of-breed trending technology integrations to accelerate digital transformation.
AI capabilities, for example, speed and augment people and insights for a competitive advantage when it comes to customer service, product and service improvements, and even business transformation to include new business model development. When already included as part of a platform solution, this can give smaller or leaner organizations the same or better advantage compared to their enterprise peers who might choose to build these capabilities themselves.

Lean in to the trends.
Similarities across unified communications and contact center trends—and employee experience (EX) and customer experience (CX)—are clear above. In its Top Strategic Technology Trends for 2021, Gartner predicts that, “by the end of 2023, 40% of organizations will have applied anywhere operations to deliver optimized and blended virtual and physical customer and employee experiences.”
They also predict that organizations that focus and deliver on this total experience will outperform competitors across key satisfaction metrics over the next three years: “These intersected experiences are key moments for businesses looking to achieve differentiation via capitalizing on new experiential disruptors.”
