Bringing the Human Touch Back To Work

So how can organisations reform their workplace communication policies and methods to limit the undesirable effects digital communications has had on the workforce and their work output? Victor Phang, CEO of end-to-end HR solutions provider WorkSmartly, talks to us about the tools and strategies to bring the human touch back to work.
