Business Planning Steams Ahead for 2021
The digital change brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic has changed companies’ adoption of technology and transformed business and the way we work forever. Plandisc, the world’s first digital and interactive circular planning tool, reports a 45% increase in users relying on Plandisc’s tool for 2021 across December 2020 and January 2021 compared to the same period in 2019/20.
Originally created as a planning tool for schools, Plandisc, is fast becoming integrated into businesses for streamlining and coordinating planning across multiple teams and stakeholders with one easy-to-use planning tool. With a circular 12-month view which is ideal for visualising and mapping out the rhythm of business across a company, Plandisc is compatible with MS Outlook, Teams and SharePoint, which means that meetings can be moved with just a few clicks.
Torben Stigaard, partner at Plandisc explains: “The first few months of any year are always our busiest when we can quite literally see how much planning is being done for the year ahead. 2020 has shown us that planning ahead for predictable and unpredictable business challenges is certainly worth an investment of time and effort. And now, smart business leaders have been fast to realise the importance of sharing data digitally given the new ways of working we’ve adopted.”
“Plandisc comes into its own making planning activities, tasks and meetings simple to share in a visual, digital format which allows for easy coordination across teams and departments. And beyond this initial business planning period, Plandisc is easy to update to keep up with the constant change that we’ve all become used to in recent times.”
