A Global Digital Transformation
Fast Facts
DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION /dig·i·tal trans·for·ma·tion/ n.
The integration of digital technology into a business that fundamentally changes how it operates and delivers value to stakeholders.
Remote work and the use of digital platforms for business has dramatically increased in recent years, and the COVID-19 pandemic has served to further accelerate a global adoption of the digital workspace.
In April 2020, research conducted by Gallup estimated that up to 62% of employed Americans worked at home during the crisis. A survey of 25,000 Americans by MIT, Stanford, and NBER found that 34.1% of the labor force had switched to remote work and that 14.6% were already working from home pre-COVID-19.2 These figures suggest that approximately half the workforce is now working remotely.

A recent IDC study found that 87% of U.S. enterprises expect their employees to continue working from home three or more days per week once mandatory closures are lifted, and 90% of enterprises think that more of their workers will work from home in the future. Moreover, by 2024, IDC expects mobile workers will account for nearly 60% of the total U.S. workforce.
