Is BYOD Right for Your Business?

These days, asking someone to leave their mobile device at the door is like suggesting that a fish go a day without water. Whether it’s our phones, tablets, laptops or watches, most of us feel as dependent on our devices as we do air. It doesn’t matter if we are out to dinner, on top of a mountain or in a meeting—we can’t help but wonder what we’re missing on the screens tucked away in our pockets and briefcases.
It makes sense then that progressive employers the world over are embracing—and even capitalizing on—today’s device-dependent culture by implementing BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) initiatives in the workplace. Because with the promise of increased productivity, lowered costs, and happier employees, why not?
