Collective Technologies and AI-Augmented Office (Corporate)

Work today rarely happens in isolation. Most roles rely on collaboration across teams, locations and digital systems, with collective technologies providing the shared spaces and tools that keep people connected and aligned. As AI becomes increasingly embedded within these collective technologies, it enhances everyday work by summarising information, highlighting patterns and reducing routine tasks, allowing people to focus on higher-value thinking and collaboration. When used effectively, this combination of collective technologies and AI enables faster teamwork, better decision-making, reduced administrative effort and more inclusive ways of working. To realise these benefits, organisations must adopt AI responsibly, with careful attention to ethics, data protection and digital citizenship, ensuring AI supports professional judgement rather than replacing it.
