According to new data released by harmon.ie, 77 percent of mobile workers finish documents, proposals or presentations while on the road, with more than half literally finalizing materials in the 11th hour.Some 84 percent of traveling executives and managers report that they cannot work effectively on collaborative projects while on-the-go despite increased enterprise adoption of iPads and smartphones.
Of course, some might argue, blaming tools is sometimes an excuse. Another study by harmon.ie found that people get distracted while working, losing at least an hour a day of potential work time from various distractions specifically caused by collaboration and social tools intended to increase the value of collaboration.
The study found that 53% of IT users waste at least one hour a day dealing with all types of distractions. The point is that too much sometimes is made of "lack of tools." The tools themselves cause lost productivity.
Some people just whine.
