Watch out, workplace — Gen Z is here, and you’re going to need better meeting room booking software…

We’ve come to know our Millennial colleagues very well recently — they’re the Eighties-born kids who really live life digitally. Millennials want absolutely everything in their lives — including the place they do their work — to be connected. But having an ‘always-on’ attitude has been shown to bring pressures in its wake, creating stress and even anxiety if not managed properly. It’s definitely a concern that the same things will affect  Generation Z , the new kids making their arrival on the block, even more. These talented young people, who were born between the mid-90s and early 2000s, actually comprise nearly 30 per cent of the planet’s population. Like the Millennials, they expect a great work/life balance, but they can happy be persuaded to stay in your company long term if you can make your workplace somewhere they actually want to be.

Everybody wants a perfect meeting . In fact, it’s crucial if you want your business to prosper. But if your recipe is “just use Outlook”, you could be in for trouble. Why? Does this sound familiar? You find that you are struggling to juggle all the booking elements when you try to use Outlook on its own. This is how it goes: You can book rooms, but you can’t book the AV you need. So you manage to put AV in the notes, but then you find out that a couple of your guests have specific meal requirements. Then the worst happens. The team members and your client are on the notice for the meeting, but the date changes by two days. Oh dear. It’s an admin nightmare to remember all the fields, files, sticky notes and emails you need to change for everything not included in the Outlook meeting. Many modern organisations are digitising and streamlining their business processes, and find many booking situations are disjointed when using Outlook. For complex organisations, Outlook ...
