OPINION: ESM<br />

can be streamlined through the ESM<br />

system. Employees could submit<br />

requests through the portal, which<br />

would then automatically route them for<br />

approval to the appropriate managers,<br />

with notifications and reminders built in.<br />

This reduces the administrative burden<br />

on HR and ensures that requests are<br />

processed promptly, enhancing<br />

employee satisfaction.<br />

THE AI ADVANTAGE<br />

The benefits of ESM get even better<br />

with the integration of AI, which has<br />

already proven it can be a powerful<br />

tool for businesses. AI algorithms within<br />

ESM can analyse data generated by<br />

various requests and interactions,<br />

providing valuable insights to all teams.<br />

AI-powered ESM solutions can go<br />

beyond just appropriately directing<br />

ticket requests, for example, by<br />

providing personalised responses based<br />

on the employee's profile and past<br />

interactions. AI will also be able to<br />

identify trends in employee inquiries,<br />

helping departments proactively<br />

address common concerns and<br />

improve company policies and<br />

workflows. With the promise of AI, the<br />

entire organisation is poised to become<br />

more productive and efficient.<br />

AI will have a profound impact on our<br />

businesses and teams. But counter to<br />

some concerns, we foresee this will free<br />

up our teams' time for more impactful<br />

work rather than mean a loss of jobs.<br />

We can expect people to work<br />

alongside their new AI "colleagues"<br />

while taking on new roles that AI is not<br />

suitable for, including increasingly<br />

being able to use their human creativity<br />

and ingenuity to innovate.<br />

Organisations cannot afford to let<br />

inefficient internal communications<br />

slow their operations and creativity. It's<br />

time to envision a workplace where<br />

employees throughout the entire<br />

organisation can dedicate their<br />

attention to their substantive<br />

responsibilities instead of being<br />

overwhelmed by a flood of alerts and<br />

notifications.<br />

The future of work has arrived,<br />

leading to unprecedented creativity,<br />

innovation, and productivity, no matter<br />

the size of your business or industry. <strong>NC</strong><br />
