Part of the intO the future of > WORK series, this thought-provoking report curates insights from the most progressive innovators and experts in our global network, and explores three emerging opportunity spaces for leaders who are shaping the future of knowledge-based work.
How will the next few years change the way you, your teams and your customers work?
How should you act now to innovate and make the most of these shifts?
In a world of work that’s still changing at pace, how can we be confident that the decisions we make today will be future-proof?
How will we all, together, reinvent work and the workplace for the better and the long-term?
As a team of researchers with backgrounds that span anthropology, social psychology, design and innovation, we’ve explored these questions to identify three overarching opportunity spaces that will have a long and lasting impact on the future of work:
> Human-centric enterprise
> Harnessing hybrid
> Extended reality
Our intO the Future of > WORK 2022 report introduces the drivers and sub-themes that belong to each space and examines present-day ‘signals’ that anticipate the future direction of emerging shifts.
As a team of diverse, multi-lingual researchers, living in over 50 established and emerging markets around the world, we work in-detail and in-context to turn cultural insights from around the world into your next opportunity for growth.
If you’re interested to discuss how the opportunity spaces in this report could be applied to your own business, or would like to learn more about how intO supports the growth strategies of its clients, please contact our Research Director, Chloe Amos-Edkins at [email protected].
Benchmarking often gets sidelined, seen as repetitive, resource-heavy, or simply not urgent. But in this article, intO’s Global Strategist, Lalo González, argues it’s the missing link in global product strategy. Drawing on Studio intO’s unique approach, he explains how contextual, on-the-ground benchmarking reveals leapfrogging innovations, exposes competitive gaps, and feeds directly into product and design decision-making. For teams stretched across markets, it’s essential.
In today’s fast-paced, remote-first work environments, it's easy for innovation teams to become detached from the people they’re designing for. Speed, scale and distributed decision-making are often the norm, but without deep, in-context understanding, strategic decisions can become dangerously abstract. That’s why we created the Cultural Immersion Planner. And if you’re responsible for UX research, innovation, or product localisation, you’re going to want this in your toolkit.
