Atos, an $11 billion Tech firm, analyzed their email system, found that it was causing a huge loss of productivity and announced that they will kill email. Is email is the greatest threat ever to productivity? Does your firm have a project to KILL EMAIL?

 

 

 

No I don’t think Email is to be killed and I certainly would lose a lot of money if I “killed” email in both my companies. Maybe the problem is with those “chain” emails or “funny” emails and people lose time with them. Serious business email cannot reduce productivity, in one of my companies email is the key to get projects and I have to watch it keenly. I wonder what went on at Atos….
