4 apps every office-goer should have in their smartphone

It goes without saying that an organization’s success essentially depends on how well employees perform their tasks. Happy employees can deliver better productivity at work and that is exactly what businesses need to grow. But what are the reasons behind employees underperforming in the first place? There might be some valid reasons that will carry clues of fixing the issues instead of hiring replacements.  For instance, you might notice the biometric report of an employee arriving late to work almost every other day. If you are willing to find a solution, you might just discover that it is due to commuting during the peak traffic period every day for 2 hours.

Since we belong to this age of AI, Machine learning, and Internet of Things, modern age challenges like lack of employee productivity and improving their efficiency can be sorted by leveraging these new-age apps:
