Your Roadmap for 2022 with PIQNIC

With the new year fast approaching, your mind may already be planning for 2022. Some unique challenges and trends will cross your path in 2022, which you can plan for now to make sure you are prepared. Take a look at how PIQNIC can help you with your roadmap. 

Various studies and predictions are trying to prepare business owners for the challenges and trends of 2022. No one has a crystal ball to see the future, but some trends are already playing out in the world right now. According to one article, recruitment and retaining of staff are a common theme with The Great Resignation continuing from 2021 well into 2022. This has resulted in some operational challenges, some of which can be handled with our intelligent software at PIQNIC. We will take a look at these a little more thoroughly here. 

• Operational Efficiencies

One way companies are dealing with a smaller workforce is by streamlining processes and tasks. Workflow planning and management will contribute to making operations more efficient in various industries. Flatter companies structures seem to be a trend in both small and large companies.  Predictions are that business process analysis, industrial engineering, and automation will be more commonplace in 2022. 

• Automation and AI

Automation and artificial intelligence (AI) systems will be taking over some tasks that you previously had to do. In some industries, robots have taken over entire jobs, such as a mechanical butler reported by Time.  In other industries, the tasks each employee needs to perform may very well change. Automation in some form is going to affect your business, and you need to prepare your team and your business plan for it. 

• Cyber Security

• The Culture of Work

The rise of remote work, hybrid work and gig workers has changed the way offices will work in the future. Accountability, integration and trust need to be fostered in order for your team to remain productive and cohesive. Outsourcing and cooperation between organisations will be at the order of the day - even partnerships between competitors (Forbes). It is important that the technology that you use help you manage and integrate teams effectively while creating work autonomy in this new culture of work. 

• New Technologies

Technologies have evolved at a rapid rate in the recent past, and new ones are predicted to pop up in the next few years. It has created a completely new work environment, and it is important that companies adapt to future-proof their operations. These technologies need to help employees rather than add to their list of things to learn and do. The technology should also create flexibility, transparency, easy decision-making, accountability and trust. New technologies should also work with the way you work, rather than changing your internal processes.
