Every year, new trends surface about the way we work and operate companies & processes. Advances in technology, wisdom, situations, and ground realities compel the evolution of new trends and the demise of the old. Let's deep dive into these trends, including some that we are seeing in action this year, some you may be aware of, and some not.
Here are the business trends for 2022 and beyond:
1. Tech revolution to gain momentum: The pace of digital makeover has never been as dizzying as it has been for all of us since the onset of COVID-19 and its cascading effects on our lives & work. For businesses that were reluctant to jump onto the tech bandwagon, the pandemic was a much-needed wake-up call. Either you transform or perish. And yes, companies went bust. Those who were smart are now thriving. Companies will not continue the momentum and be tech-savvy from now on. Salesforce partners are instrumental in helping businesses navigate this tech revolution.
2. Collaboration on a global scale: Irrespective of the industries they are working in, the worldwide community needs to come together to make the trading system more robust. The collaboration will be especially critical with matters related to sustainable energy and climate change, reviving faith in global trade & supply chains, as well as dealing with the repercussions of the pandemic. SFDC Partners can play a vital role in facilitating global collaboration and improving business processes.
3. Employers will turn employee-friendly even more: As people have seen the benefits of the work-from-home/hybrid model, businesses that can employ people to work remotely will continue to do so. Many companies are moving to a 4- or 5-day working model, a hybrid style of work (work from both the office and home), as well as more perks. Attracting and retaining talent has always been an issue, but with the pandemic, it has become even more critical. Salesforce partners can assist in creating efficient remote work environments and enhancing employee satisfaction.
4. Brands and trust issues: Being trusted by their employer on issues of diversity, fairness, financials, transparency, and recognition was important then and is important now. The values and culture of the company need to be trusted, valued, and recognized by each employee. SFDC Partners can help organizations implement systems and practices that foster trust and transparency within the company.
5. Distributed IT infrastructure: By the end of this year, a majority of businesses will deploy hybrid or multi-cloud management technologies, tools, and processes. This move in favor of distributed IT infrastructure will be evident by an increase in tech tools taken by businesses from cloud-service platforms, open repositories, and enterprise software-as-a-service (SaaS) providers. The synergy of cloud & edge computing allows businesses to shift computing power to the boundaries of their networks. The best Salesforce partners can aid in optimizing and managing this distributed IT infrastructure.
6. Cloud-based platforms: The future is here, and what a future it is. Cloud-based tools that leverage the core elasticity and scalability of cloud computing offer quicker time-to-value. They will minimize any reliance on infrastructure, allowing energy to focus on application functionality instead. Salesforce is a leading provider of cloud-based platforms that can revolutionize how businesses operate.
7. Taking decisions based on artificial intelligence and so on Using a wide range of tech tools to provide insights that enable better decision-making is known as decision intelligence. This offers the scope for various teams to oversee, analyze, and enhance decisions based on data received from various sources. Salesforce's AI capabilities can empower businesses to make data-driven decisions and drive growth.
