The Role of Images & Video in Workplace Productivity | Tom Solid
The digital age has ushered in its fair share of upsides and challenges, especially when it comes to productivity. While there are so many applications and tools that promise to make it a lot easier, sometimes, they do the opposite.
That’s probably why people end up getting lost in the maze of keeping up with the times, are overwhelmed while finding information, or are just plain unproductive.
The critical question here is, how do you address this productivity problem? And how can videos and images play a part?
