2021 in Review: Our Top 5 Articles About Connectivity
December is dedicated to connectivity at Ten Thousand Coffees. As we reflected upon 2021, we noticed that connectivity was everywhere for our clients, their employees as well as for our own 10KC team.
The feeling of connectedness is very important for today’s enterprise workers, as 62% of surveyed US enterprise employees would leave their organization for one where they would feel more connected to colleagues.
