The silo problem
What is the first thing that comes to mind when considering a workplace?
A team?
Yes, a team where people work together on multiple projects or tasks to achieve a target. On an SLA (of course)!
But what would happen if you were working on a target alone, with no one to mentor, guide, or lead you?
This would result in multiple conditions, such as:
- Increased pressure
- Longer timeline
- Communication gap
- Knowledge gap
- Client dissatisfaction
- Work-life imbalance
- Health degradation
Let us see where collaborative workplace comes into the frame.

TCS Chroma, an HRMS portal, has various modules that help the client structure their key functionalities in a more stable format across people management, talent performance, recruitment, and much more. Let us now address the key features of a collaborative workplace.
Impact on employees
Knowledge transfer
A planned and detailed knowledge transfer session from your mentor or peer helps you to learn the product features and functions. This leads to decreased knowledge gaps that help with faster analysis of problems and solutions.
Cross-module training
The HR management system has multiple modules. Having specific knowledge of a certain module will only limit your skill and expertise. Cross-module training helps the functional team understand the inter-module interactions and easily identify the problem and its source. This leads to less time in delivery and increased knowledge of the product. It bridges the knowledge gap of inter-module configurations.
The HRMS portal has multiple modules in the talent core feature, that includes organization management, people management, leave management, attendance management, performance management, to name a few. If an analyst has knowledge of the Talent Core feature, it would be easier to understand the integrations present in each module and have a nuanced grip of the product.
Communication is key
Effective communication can only bring the gathered knowledge to the client for streamlined solutions. Collaborative workplaces can bridge the knowledge and communication gap, leading to team building, achieving targets, and meeting client needs.
To highlight in real time, if an employee has vast knowledge of the product, but unable to communicate the same points to customer, it will lack understanding from customer’s end and build a gap. Effective communication skills can curate your knowledge into proper solutioning to client.
Sustainable leadership
A strong leadership leads you to a long way in employee growth. The sustainability leader is adept at sharing a vision and facilitating dialogue that inspires action and creates shared meaning (active listening, emotional intelligence, reflection) and creating conditions that encourage learning from experience. Our leadership team promotes employee motivation and inspiration and drives the team toward success.
Work-life balance
In this competitive era, work-life balance is a myth for many. However, collaborative workplaces promote a motivating work culture that uplifts employee wellness. Sound mental health will only allow one to deliver the best to the organization and, thus, to the client. Working together can make this happen.
Productive work
Rather than focusing on the hours spent on work, a collaborative workplace promotes quality work. Defect-free delivery with an optimized solution will not only increase the customer satisfaction index but also increase the stability of the product. Every productive work session leads to evolving results that bring growth to a team and an organization. This leads to cost savings as well.
More motivation, more innovation
A collaborative workplace will automatically lead to better solutioning of problems. This will bring more innovation, which will ultimately lead to happier clients.
Better business agility and flexibility
Collaboration space supports workers as they keep pace with the fast-paced business climate. Employees can tackle tasks quickly with the help of peers. Collaborative work environments speed up problem-solving and productivity while helping the business stay flexible and adapt to changing work.
In today’s post-covid era, most of our teams are non-geographic specific, i.e. not limited to a single location. Our teams consist of team members from multiple locations, where we are working as a team. Collaborating with each other daily, bonding in work and delivering successfully every day. This is what promotes business agility and flexibility, where global talents are meeting on a single platform and working for the organization.
Secured connectivity and increased efficiency
A digital work environment that gives employees secure access to workplace and resources so they can collaborate efficiently and effectively from any location. Peers from different geographies can work as a great team without any work hindrance.
Better structures
A collaborative office culture brings the entire team together in one place, allowing them to join forces, communicate, designate, brainstorm, and finalize their tasks to achieve better results. It puts the employees in the right mindset that ensures better focus, enhanced creativity, and improved efficiency. Multiple businesses can collaborate, helping businesses grow collectively.
In the coming days, the IT industry's great collaborative work structure will be able to meet the competitive edge of a growing industry. There will be no limit to any work skills, and this will lead to enhanced workplaces that ultimately lead to a greater organizational structure for employees to evolve.
