Teams | Collaboration | Customer Service | Project Management

Professional services teams are often convinced they have a "people problem" when what they really have is a visibility problem. Tasks scattered across three tools, time logged in a spreadsheet nobody checks, and deadlines that only surface when a client emails asking for an update. Before I joined Teamwork.com, I spent years managing client projects at agencies where this was just how things worked. Monday mornings started with a 45-minute standup that could have been a dashboard.

Adopting AI technology without an effective strategy is costing the Fortune 500 an estimated $161 billion a year.* Enterprises are making big investments in this space but are struggling to realise the returns. We know the technology is designed to make businesses more efficient, but we’re still seeing the opposite because most businesses are treating AI as purely a technology transformation. That’s where they get stuck.

Successful intranets display intentional design choices that reflect their organizational identity. The 2026 Simpplr Employee Experience Excellence Award winners illustrate how distinctive design, thoughtful naming, and unexpected features turn standard digital workplaces into memorable brand experiences.

Nobody schedules a meeting to talk about the eleven seconds an app takes to load, or the four minutes someone spends digging through a cluttered desktop for a file they saved “somewhere obvious.” Those moments never make it into a retro or a performance review. They’re too small to complain about and too frequent to ignore. That’s why technology challenges that quietly reduce team productivity are so hard to catch.

Your team is working hard. But you don't actually know how hard until the hours are logged. I've seen this pattern repeat throughout remote and hybrid teams. The schedule looks reasonable on paper. But the real hours tell a different story. Someone is absorbing more than their share, and nobody flags it until their mental health is already exhausted. That’s why I'll share with you the ways time tracking and work-life balance connect.

Most employees have no idea what their time tracking app records. They clock in, the timer runs, and somewhere on a server, data builds up. Depending on the tool, that data goes well beyond working hours. Some apps log URLs visited. Others capture screenshots every few minutes. In fact, a few tracks of the GPS location. To clear things up, let’s understand what data is collected in time tracking apps, what employers do with it, and what you have the right to know.
