SUBJECT: A Proposal for Investigating Ways in which Technology Enhances Employees

Productivity in 21st Century and their Impacts on Company’s Performance.

Introduction

In a highly evolving work place, technology is playing a profound role in enhancing business

operations by reducing costs and increasing efficiency. Furthermore, it has also been enhancing

workers’ productivity through improving of the working environment and boosting the

employee’s morale and this has contributed to the overall improvement of the organizations

performance. There are numerous ways in which the technology has contributed to the

enhancement of the employee’s productivity such as reducing unproductive travel time,

improving the employees’ satisfaction, streamlining customer satisfaction, facilitating sharing of

information, flattening the organization structure among other ways. However, it has been noted

that technology can also negatively affect the workers’ productivity if it is used for wrong

reasons or at the wrong time.

Statement of the Problem

The proposed study aims at investigating ways in which the technology has contributed in

enhancing the productivity of the employees in the 21st century and their overall impacts on the

company performance.

Proposed Study

Rapid evolvement of technology has significantly contributed in changing the manner in which

things have traditionally been done. For instance, the workers do not have to be virtually present

in office to accomplish certain tasks at the office but they can comfortably do them at a different

place. This not only saves the travel time but also the costs that are characterized by moving

from one point to the other. The current study aims at investigating different ways in which

technology has contributed in enhancing the workers’ productivity in the contemporary times

and their overall impacts on the company’s performance.

Conclusion

It is very clear that technology has taken shape in the 21st century and it has had profound effects

on the workers’ productivity which in return have impacted the organizations overall

performance in different ways. On your approval, the current study will investigate the ways in

which the technology has enhanced employees’ performance and their impacts in overall

performance of the company.
