Key Insights

The Accenture Future of Work Study 2022 explores the current state of the workforce, focusing on the disconnect between employee expectations and employer practices in the context of flexible work arrangements, technology, and support. The study, which surveyed 10,750 workers and 200 CEOs, reveals that while companies are promising flexibility, they often fail to provide the necessary tools and empowerment for employees to be productive across different work environments. The research suggests that rethinking traditional work models to support “productive anywhere” employees can unlock human potential and drive organizational success. However, many workers feel disconnected and unsupported, leading to a lack of trust in leadership and an increase in turnover. The study emphasizes the importance of organizational agility, work autonomy, supportive leadership, and digital upskilling in fostering a workforce that can thrive in any setting.
