The Connected Workplace: Private Industry

This project will focus on the use of wireless technologies in the Canadian private sector work environment. Wireless is the fastest growing area of Canadian communications. Despite enormous growth for personal use, recent market data demonstrates the workplace remains a largely underdeveloped market for wireless service providers. The overall purpose of this project is to better understand the obstacles to technology adoption in the workplace, and offer actionable recommendations on how to mitigate them. The student intern will be charged with conducting a literature review of this field, conducting interviews with management officials, creating and compiling surveys involving workers in private sector work environments, and drafting a report that will be delivered to Rogers. The intern’s work will be done in conjunction with a team from Rogers Communication. The partner organization will gain valuable insight to expanding market share in the Canadian workplace.
