WorkJam Launches Next Generation Task Management Platform Advancing the Frontline Workforce Revolution
Summary
Task management has historically been either a manual or siloed function, facilitated by outdated and overburdened systems, creating barriers to true operational excellence and obstacles for developing the optimal employee experience. “WorkJam is proud to have co-innovated with our customers — some of the most successful companies in the world that consistently outperform their competitors — to deliver a new approach to task management, re-imagined for the 21st century and designed to work in concert with the other critical capabilities frontline employees need to be effective and motivated,” said Steve Kramer, CEO and co-founder of WorkJam. “We have architected this module, to allow for rapid deployment and quick time to value for our customers.” “Traditional task management systems are no longer effective and have failed to capture breakthrough productivity gains since they have functioned in isolation of other resources — such as communication, training, scheduling, and gamified recognition — employees need to do their jobs,” said Paul Wyatt, Vice President of Product at WorkJam. “Because task management connects frontline workers to the objectives of organizational leaders, ensuring the integration of task management into every system of work has become critical for employers as they aim to increase productivity in the face of compressing margins and a challenging labor market.” As part of WorkJam’s unified platform including streamlined scheduling, team communication, micro-training, customers will be able to leverage the high employee adoption rates of WorkJam into their task management deployment, enabling companies with non-desk workers to achieve outsized operational improvements, foster collaboration, build their culture, and discover new ways of doing business. For employees, WorkJam delivers more opportunity & control over their schedule, providing work-life balance, as well as the tools to develop skills, improve business acumen, and maximize their earnings to advance their economic well-being.
