Now let's look at the benefits that these features will add to your life.</div><div><br></div><h3>Meeting Rooms Supported Up To 100 Participants</h3><div>The concept of a meeting room is not new in our life. However, the spread of working from home due to the pandemic, as well as the transition of educational institutions to the distance education model, significantly increased the value of meeting rooms.</div><div><br></div><div>Teachers who was teaching crowded student groups in large classrooms ran into some problems when they had to transfer these lectures online:</div><ul><li>There were very few applications that supports video conference to large amount of people</li><li>The prices of those who provided this service were very high.</li></ul><div><br></div><div>For companies with large teams, teachers with large classrooms, meeting rooms that can support high participant numbers are priceless.</div><div><br></div><div>With OctaMeet, you can access meeting rooms for up to 100 people.</div><div><br></div><h3>30 Hour Group Meeting Time</h3><div>We talked about the meetings that large groups should hold, but what about the meeting times?</div><div><br></div><div>In meetings where so many people express their opinions, it is possible for meetings to last longer than an hour. Managers who want to listen to employee reports and teachers who want to form discussion groups with their students need to be able to hold meetings for a longer period of time.</div><div><br></div><div>OctaMeet meets these needs with a group meeting time of 30 hours. In the middle of the discussion, the confusion and waste of time asking all participants to exit and re-enter is not a problem anymore with OctaMeet.</div><div><br></div><h3>1GB Cloud Storage</h3><div>While holding group meetings, we need to share some files with our teammates. These files are crucial for the full transmission of the message the meeting wants to convey.</div><div><br></div><div>What if we need to share files larger than a few kilobytes during our meeting?</div><div><br></div><div>OctaMeet takes care of this problem thanks to the 1GB cloud storage that comes with the subscription.</div><div><br></div><div>You can store the files that you need to keep or share with the cloud technology tool.

Thanks to OctaMeet, you can achieve this by sharing your screen with all participants in crowded meeting rooms.</div><div><br></div><h3>Meeting Recording</h3><div>The word flies, the record remains. It is known that short summaries for those who missed the meetings can hinder the details where the real importance lies. It is almost impossible to summarize the issues discussed at length in the meetings in a short summary.</div><div><br></div><div>With the feature of recording the meetings offered by OctaMeet, everyone will now have access to important details such as exactly what topics were discussed, who said what with what facial expressions and tone of voice.</div><div><br></div><div>The difference in meaning created by a small change in tone is known. Now, those who missed meetings and lectures will have the opportunity to access the videos recorded with OctaMeet anytime, anywhere.</div><div><br></div><div>You may also want to keep an archive to see what was discussed in your past meetings, who attended, who came up with what suggestions and what comments they made.</div><div><br></div><div>With OctaMeet, your meeting, interview or lecture can be archived. Thanks to the meeting recording feature, it is possible to keep it on your computer, external storage disk or cloud technology.</div><div><br></div><h3>Webinar</h3><div>Universities, high schools, primary schools, professional development courses; all of these have turned into things that are done on the internet today. You can access millions of content with one click, and you can improve yourself in the field you want.</div><div><br></div><div>If you are an expert in a subject and want to teach people something for profit or as a social responsibility project, you can do this on the internet with the concept of 'webinar'.</div><div><br></div><div>The concept of 'webinar', which means live lessons where you can communicate with people, can be used for many purposes:</div><ul><li>Giving seminars to your employees about the subjects you think they should learn,</li><li>To raise awareness about social issues,</li><li>Giving for-profit lectures on your subject matter.</li></ul><div>The 'webinar', which can be used for all these purposes and more, provides the opportunity to interact with students live, along with video conference platforms such as OctaMeet.

<div><br></div><div>Organizations live for efficiency. higher efficiency; means higher profitability and higher volume of business.</div><div><br></div><div>One of the key ways to increase productivity is to have a meaningful company culture. It is a concept that covers everything from local relations, openness to innovation, and regulation of employee behavior. It should be defined and stable.</div><div><br></div><div>With the digital transformation of the business world, it may be necessary to make the remote working model a part of the corporate culture.</div><div><br></div><div>Research shows that remote work will take up a big place in the business world in the future.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>PwC, one of the largest companies in America, will switch its 40 thousand employees to the remote working system. It proves that remote or hybrid working systems will take place in our lives for a long time.</div><div><br></div><h2>What is Corporate Culture? - Corporate Culture Definition</h2><div><br></div><div>Corporate culture includes corporate-specific behaviors, beliefs, and habits. They are unwritten rules that regulate behavior, relationships, and working methods to maintain order and discipline within the institution.</div><div><br></div><div>Among the things that make up the corporate culture;</div><ul><li>the establishment story and history of the institution,</li><li>core values ​​on which it leans,</li><li>the way it interacts with its environment,</li><li>its vision and mission.</li></ul><div>But 'corporate culture'<b> is really about how things work within the company.</b></div><div><br></div><h2>How Important is a Company Culture To Its Success</h2><div><br></div><div>In a company with an established culture, employees find guidance on how to work, thanks to the corporate culture, which prevents them from getting lost in obscurity. The corporate culture, which is a guide on how things will work, is also adopted by the employees.</div><div><br></div><div>The employee, who adopts the corporate culture with the help of human resources, finds a guide for himself when he starts working. The employee, who passes the adaptation process quickly thanks to the corporate culture, also feels himself a part of a whole.</div><div><br></div><div>The job satisfaction of the employee who is aware of the fact that he/she is in a solid culture increases. This increases productivity. Employee loyalty is ensured and the company gains a valuable member.</div><div><br></div><div>Employees in a productive organizational culture can talk about how 'super' your company is. This can give you an advantage in public relations and make you a desirable company to work for.</div><div><br></div><h3>How Are Good Corporate Cultures Created?</h3><div>Corporate culture does not happen in the beginning, it is a time-consuming process. The extent of the stakeholders' roles in this formation varies, but all the company's stakeholders play a role in creating and transmitting this culture.</div><div><br></div><div>The human resources departments of the companies can be seen as the most authoritative units in this regard. They can be a guide in the formation of culture. In KPMG's 2020 research, 71% of executives think that the human resources department plays a vital role in establishing the right corporate culture.</div><div><br></div><h3>What Can HR Do To Build Company Culture?</h3><div>The human resources department should consider the following criteria when creating a corporate culture:</div><ul><li>It should be in line with the company's goals, vision, and mission,</li><li>Must provide the necessary conditions for the company to remain competitive in the business world,</li><li>It should be able to keep up with the rapidly changing business world and be flexible.</li></ul><div>This culture cannot be established by memorizing, managers and employees should also help to form the culture with their behaviors.</div><div><br></div><div>Board members’ behavior is important in the creation of company culture. A strong leader is important in establishing a strong culture. It plays a vital role as an example to the employees and face of the company. It plays a significant role to inspire employee engagement.</div><div><img src="https://cms.octapull.com/Uploads/e0980e4c36e1467f9fabbc1a1eb4ecbd.jpeg" style="width: 50%;"><br></div><h3>4 Types Of Corporate Culture</h3><div><br></div><h5>Clan Culture</h5><div>Those companies are usually family-owned. It uses traditional ways to keep the values of the corporate and the family. It aims to take personal care with the employees to create a feeling of full unity as a family.</div><h5>Hierarchical Culture</h5><div>Those companies are very structural and rule-bonding. It is a fast decision-making type where only the board has a word in the important issues.&nbsp;</div><h5>Market Culture</h5><div>This culture type is result-oriented. In such cultures, who works the most, who gets the biggest reward. You have to be very hardworking, but if you do, you get rewarded big.&nbsp;</div><h5>Adhocracy Culture</h5><div>Those cultures are usually digital and innovative ones. It encourages risk-taking to all members. Everyone has a right to say their thoughts. All priority is on the innovations.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><h3>How To Ensure Good Corporate Culture?</h3><div>As you can see, types of cultures, ties, and roots from the past are strictly adhered to; change and development are denied.</div><div><br></div><div>In today's business world, where automation and digital transformation have become the number one actors, it is pointless to resist these innovations.</div><div><br></div><div>In the future projections, it is seen that remote working and <a href="https://www.octapull.com/en/blog/new-trend-of-businesses-hybrid-work-model" target="_blank">hybrid working models</a> will continue to exist in the future. Studies in some countries show that more than half of workers want to continue working remotely after the pandemic.</div><div><br></div><div>The full integration of institutions in these new working models will be the determining factor in terms of their sustainability. For this reason, it is important to include remote work, digital transformation, and automation in the corporate culture.</div><div><br></div><div>Digital transformation can be overcome without any damage, thanks to the evolution of the corporate culture in this direction. If this change is tried to be made without internalizing it by companies, a corrupt structure may emerge.</div><div><br></div><div>As management consultant Peter F. Drucker puts it:</div><div><br></div><blockquote>‘Culture eats strategy for breakfast.’</blockquote><div><br></div><div>For the corporate culture to adapt to digital transformation, corporate leaders and managers and the human resources department will need to take responsibility.</div><div><br></div><div>You will also need consultants and software that can assist your company to complete your digital transformation. The distant channel management (DCM) model that you can use with <a href="https://www.octapull.com/en/blog/increase-your-workplace-efficiency-with-octapull-pro" target="_blank">Octapull Pro</a> offers a new solution for your company's field teams to digitize their work and make it suitable for remote working.</div><div><br></div><div>By incorporating the digital transformation and remote working model into your corporate culture, you can take a positive step for both the happiness of your employees and the efficiency of your business. These days when the world and especially the business world is developing rapidly, making working remotely a corporate culture.

 Organizations live for efficiency. higher efficiency; means higher profitability and higher volume of business. Good corporate culture ensures efficiency.


What is Corporate Culture? Integrate it with Remote Work

<div>The disadvantages of the hybrid work model are not something that everyone dares to talk about. Although this concept, which has been in our lives for about 1.5 years, seems like a great invention of the future that will take over business life, everything may not be as beautiful as it seems.<br></div><div><br></div><div>The hybrid model, seen as the future of work, is a system that is highly desired by the employees according to the surveys.</div><div><br></div><div>This model, which works from home on certain days of the week and remotely on certain days, wants to be the new trend of the business world by preserving the advantages of different working systems and eliminating their disadvantages. But it can also create some disadvantages that no one thinks about.</div><div><br></div><div>Among the advantages of this model are:</div><ul><li>Saving costs by reducing the size of offices,</li><li>Saving time by cutting travel times to work, offering a solution for traffic by reducing the number of people on the roads by arranging the working order of more companies in a hybrid way in the long run,</li><li>Employees who cannot establish a relationship with their colleagues can come to the office a few days a week and form relationships.</li></ul><div><br></div><div>We can count such items. These items are the visible and beautiful side of the business, but we will focus on the cons of a hybrid model in this article.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>In this article, we won’t examine the disadvantages of working from the office or working remotely separately. Since hybrid work is a mixture of these two models, the pros and cons of both can be counted here.</div><div><br></div><div>The<a href="https://www.octapull.com/en/blog/new-trend-of-businesses-hybrid-work-model" target="_blank"> disadvantages</a> of the hybrid model, which is the business model in which these two models are used in a mixed way, are as follows:</div><ul><li>The possibility of hierarchy within the company between office workers and home workers,</li><li>Vulnerability to cyber-crimes,</li><li>Extra costs to create a working environment fit for purpose.</li></ul><div><br></div><div>Let us now examine them in detail.</div><div><br></div><h2>The Superiority of Office Employees</h2><div>Ensuring equality between those working face to face and those working from home in the hybrid model will be one of the biggest challenges.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Studies show that employees who switch to the remote working model think that their work is seen less by their bosses, appreciated less, and less likely to receive a raise and promotion.</div><div><br></div><div>Economist Nicholas Bloom also confirms these studies; he says bosses can have a better idea of ​​their employees in the office and put them ahead in matters such as promotions and raises. It seems inevitable that this situation will create a crisis among workers in the long run.</div><div><br></div><div>It will be very important for companies that will transition to this model to build a corporate culture suitable for hybrid work, which they will optimize with the help of the HR department. If this work is not systematically inserted into, corporate culture, it will be inevitable for those working from the office to feel more privileged than those working from home and to be truly privileged in some matters.</div><div><br></div><h2>Vulnerability to Hacking</h2><div>Cyber ​​security is one of the most important issues for companies today. Illegal possession of the vital data of the company would cause undesirable consequences for both company and the customers. As a result, litigation that will last for years could happen.</div><div><br></div><div><img src="https://cms.octapull.com/Uploads/ea199e4d99cc42e6a4ec93bd7ce76cfa.jpg" style="width: 100%;"><br></div><div><br></div><div>Hybrid work has a structure that has vulnerabilities to cyber-attacks. Devices that hybrid workers will use from the office on some days of the week and from home on some days can create security vulnerabilities in the company's network.</div><div><br></div><div>Since the remote workers never visit the office; they had no chance of infecting the company network with viruses and malicious software that was placed in their devices.</div><div><br></div><div>But hybrid workers will do business both from their home and from the office. This makes them an excellent target for cyber attacks. A virus that they will bring from the insecure network they use at home to the corporate network can have huge consequences.</div><div><br></div><div>With the damage to the prestige of the company being hacked, solving these problems can also require huge expenditures.</div><div><br></div><h2>Making the Work Environment Suitable for Hybrid Work</h2><div><br></div><div>Many expenses may be required for the transition to hybrid workplaces.</div><div><br></div><div>The new work model could produce some good-looking results, including downsizing the office. Fewer people working from the office means there is no need for a large office. By moving to a smaller office, a reduction in expense items such as rental costs, electricity, and water costs would happen. A new workplace model may reduce the costs.</div><div><br></div><div>But this can cause other problems. Downgrading workspaces can affect employee productivity. Restricted personal spaces can make employees feel insecure, causing more harm than the costs saved.</div><div><br></div><div>Some of those working remotely during the covid-19 pandemic stated that they could not work fully efficiently because their equipment is not sufficient. Deficiencies in computers, work chairs, headphones, microphones can affect working performance. The company needs to provide the necessary equipment to its employees to get full efficiency from working from home.</div><div><br></div><div>SaaS programs that will facilitate hybrid work and ensure the coordination of those working from the physical office and those working from home are also one of the expense items that this working model will bring. SaaS programs, which serve in many different areas such as calendar, workflow, video conferencing, sales automation, field team management, may demand high monthly fees.</div><div><br></div><div>Companies that want to build a fully efficient hybrid operating system will need to add these fees to their annual finance plans.</div><div><br></div><h2>Solutions to Hybrid Work Model Disadvantages</h2><div><br></div><div>We also know that the hybrid model provides many advantages despite all these disadvantages. So, are there any solutions where we can eliminate the disadvantages of this model and make the system maximum efficient? Why not?</div><div><br></div><div>Hybrid working can be made into corporate culture to prevent inequalities that may occur between those working from the office and those working remotely. It may be possible to overcome this discrimination with a corporate culture that will be adopted by all stakeholders of the institution and that will ensure the requirements and sustainability of the system.</div><div><br></div><div>Necessary measures can be taken within the institution to protect against cybercrime. Although it may seem like making the devices used at home and those used in the office different from each other may create extra costs, considering the problems that hacking will bring in the long run, it is actually a very cheap method.</div><div><br></div><div>Octapull Pro is the solution you are looking for for your field team management and video conferencing needs. Through a single platform, you can meet your video conferencing needs, perform workflow management and gain an advantage in <a href="https://www.octapull.com/en/blog/field-team-management-in-one-platform" target="_blank">the field team management.</a></div><div><br></div><div>Octapull Pro, which has a <a href="https://www.octapull.com/en/pricing" target="_blank">more affordable price</a> than SaaS services that provide services on the same subject, can realize this transition of field teams, which is one of the most difficult departments to hybrid work, with budgets that will not strain your company.</div><div><br></div><div>Hybrid operating model disadvantages may keep you from this transformation. But with the solutions we propose, you can reverse these minuses; You can create a profitable and more enjoyable work environment for both your employees and you!</div><div><br></div><div><br></div> 

 The disadvantages of the hybrid work model are not something that everyone dares to talk about. Although this concept, which has been in our lives for about 1.5 years, seems like a great invention of the future that will take over business life, everything may not be as beautiful as it seems.

<div>When we look back, we can see that 2020 was a year that changed our lives. Everything that has happened to us in 2020 has had consequences that drastically changed our living habits.<br></div><div><br></div><div>One of these results will be a change that will affect the future of businesses: the transition to the hybrid working model. So how did we get to this point?</div><div><br></div><div>Office work was before considered the standard for nearly every business model. While filling out the job applications, there was no question in our minds about which working system we would be working in.</div><div><br></div><div>With the pandemic, this situation has changed. All workplaces have entirely switched to the remote working model due to necessity. This sudden transition has shaken our life order to the root and forced us to keep up with the new model.</div><div><br></div><div>We kept up. Working from home has become a regular part of everyone's life.</div><div><br></div><div>But with the increased speed of vaccination, we started to 'normalize'. There were rumors everywhere that employees are returning the work. But there was a problem. We were so used to our work environment, how would we go back to the office?</div><div><br></div><div>The <b>hybrid working model</b> emerges as an answer to this question. According to the report prepared jointly by Digital Turkey Platform and KPMG Turkey, <b>39% of the employees will continue in the hybrid working</b> model within two years.</div><div><br></div><h2>What is the Hybrid Work Model?</h2><div><br></div><div>Hybrid work; <b>A model where employees work from the office on certain days of the week and from home on certain days</b>. Although there are versions divided into weeks or shifts, we can say that the most common version is the model in which the week is divided into days.</div><div><br></div><div>In this model, the working model of the employees is determined according to their wishes or by the company.</div><div><br></div><div>Let's imagine a workplace that works five days a week. Employees working from the office had to go to the office on all five days. Waking up very early in the morning to avoid traffic, getting ready; Then the employees went to work by shuttle, public transport, or private vehicle. Time, one of the most valuable assets, was wasted just to get to work.</div><div><br></div><div>The workplace has completely switched to the remote working model at the beginning of the pandemic. Although the work-from-home model has no time wasted on the road, it has some disadvantages. For example, employees could find it challenging to focus on work in their comfort zone.</div><div><br></div><div>Another minus was the lost working hours. When you work from the office, you don’t have to work after you leave the office. But when you work remotely; It is considered normal for your manager to make a business request from you at any time of the day.</div><div><br></div><div>The goal of the hybrid model is to minimize the adverse effects of these two models on employees. Aware that increasing productivity is a prerequisite for growing businesses, companies switch to this model to improve their efficiency by increasing employees’ satisfaction with their jobs.</div><div><br></div><h2>Why Businesses Prefer Hybrid Work?</h2><div><img src="https://cms.octapull.com/Uploads/f55f5d620a8e4feeb933ee84ae6117f0.jpg" style="width: 100%;"><br></div><div><br></div><div>To understand why some companies have switched to a hybrid working model and why most companies will switch to hybrid working in the coming period, we first need to examine the disadvantages of 'working from the office' and 'working from home’, which are other business models.</div><div><br></div><h3>Disadvantages of Working from the Office</h3><ul><li>For employees accustomed to working remotely and face to face, noisy office space can be a distracting factor.</li><li>Long hours spent on the road just to commute waste a vital resource.</li><li>Most employees do not have their room, making some feel insecure because they do not have private spaces.</li></ul><div><br></div><div>Working in the office took up almost the entirety of business life until last year. The pandemic made us away from the offices. That made us see the disadvantages of the system.</div><div><br></div><div>The hybrid working model has opportunities to eliminate these disadvantages.</div><div><br></div><div>Hybrid working can solve the noise problem with more companies’ employees shifting to the model. For example, the human resources department may come to the office on Tuesdays and Fridays, while the marketing and sales departments may use Monday and Wednesday. That can solve the noise problem by reducing the number of people in the office at a given moment.</div><div><br></div><div>With the same method, employees can get their own rooms. With the decrease in the number of people in the office, rooms can be divided according to the days so that more employees can have their rooms. That increases the productivity of employees who need private space.</div><div><br></div><div>With its nature that allows you to go to the office only on certain days, the hybrid working model already saves you from the problem of time lost on the road a few days a week.</div><div><br></div><div>For some industries, such as the service industry, it may be necessary to work in the field, to go to work every day. But there are certainly some industries that can shift to fully remote or hybrid work.</div><div><br></div><div>The increase in the number of companies working with the hybrid working model in the future will mean fewer people on the roads. That can mean a reduction in traffic problems. With the hybrid working model, even on days when we go to the office, employees may have more time to spare due to decreased traffic.</div><h3><br>Disadvantages of Remote Working</h3><ul><li>Remote workers may feel lonely and isolated because they work alone and do not have co-workers around.</li><li>Again, because of working alone, employees can experience problems of not establishing and developing relationships with colleagues.</li><li>Since home life and work-life can confuse, most of the employees have problems focusing on work.</li><li>The concept of working hours may disappear, leading to a deterioration in the work-private life balance.</li></ul><div><br></div><div>It is a fact that working remotely has great advantages, such as increasing the individual’s freedom and allowing the employee to choose their work area. But to achieve maximum efficiency, companies need to find a solution to the above problems.</div><div><br></div><div>The hybrid work can provide this solution.</div><div><br></div><div>It can solve problems such as loneliness and feel isolated by bringing people to the office more often. Employees who spend certain days of the week in the office can better perform essential activities such as socializing with their colleagues and spending time with them.</div><div><br></div><div>Employees need to spend time with each other outside of work. With the help of hybrid work, they can form better relationships and hang out when they do not come to the office.</div><div><br></div><div>The inability to focus, which is one of the biggest problems of working from home, arises when the staff is working from the comfort zone. Some days of the week, or going to the office when the employee prefers, can contribute to the solution of this problem.</div><div><br></div><div>The hybrid working business model offers solutions to many problems, including the main problems of working from the office, long journey times, and the social isolation of remote working. By taking advantage of both business models, it aims to maximize the efficiency of companies and the happiness of employees.</div><div><br></div><div>The hybrid work may not be able to reverse these disadvantages for all situations. But the main focus here is; the hybrid working system aims to identify the inefficient aspects of the remote working and home working model and try to overcome them.</div><div><br></div><h2>Digital Transformation Needed for Hybrid Work</h2><div><br></div><div>The hybrid working transformation will not be painless. We are more experienced than before, but we still need tools and strategies to help us with this transformation.</div><div><br></div><div>The primary need of the teams is the communication tools that they can use to ensure effective communication between them. Tools such as Slack, Microsoft Teams can help everyone in this regard.</div><div><br></div><div>SaaS services will assist in all areas of this digital transformation. Distant channel management is one of the essential tools that can help companies in this transformation.</div><div><br></div><div>Distant channel management allows you to make your customer calls that you need to do physically through a single video conferencing platform; It may be the SaaS solution you are looking for to monitor your business channels remotely.</div><div><br></div><div>Remote channel management to assist your digital transformation required for a hybrid operating model; It is at your service with OCTAPULL's Octapull Pro product.</div><div><br></div><div>With Octapull Pro, the world's first remote channel management solution, your transition to hybrid work would be easy!&nbsp;</div><div><br></div>
