Equal seats at the table

Peter du ToitI'm the founder of FutureWork IQ where I spend my time assisting businesses to design digital workplaces or “offices in the cloud.” These environments enable companies to allow flexible and remote working for their teams. I also teach the digital literacy, fluency, communication and collaboration skills needed to work in these modern technology-rich workplaces.

So how would you answer and why?

Your business is split between Johannesburg and Cape Town. You need to have a meeting. What would you do?

• You would get both groups into a conference room each with video conferencing software and have the meeting that way (Pic 1)

Or

• You would have everyone connect to an online meeting venue (eg Zoom) from their own devices and offices and have the meeting (Pic 2)
