# The Anatomy of Work Global Index

It’s no longer a question of where you collaborate, but how. We surveyed 9,615 global knowledge workers to learn what’s working—and what's not—across businesses today. Discover key trends, then explore all the findings in the full report.

### Invest in the power of collaboration

Strong collaboration is more than an ideal—it’s a revenue-generating necessity for the modern workplace.

![55% of workers at collaborative organizations report more revenue growth](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

### 55% of workers at collaborative organizations report revenue growth over the past three years —almost double weak collaborators.

### Stay agile in the face of challenges

Organizations designed for effective collaboration can pivot and prioritize to get more (and better) work done.

![graph showing 79% leading competitors of 20%](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

### 79% of workers at collaborative organizations feel well-prepared to adapt to emergent business challenges—four times higher than weak collaborators.

### Make smart decisions faster

The higher up the corporate ladder one goes, the more collaborative work becomes—and the more problematic collaboration overload is for leaders.

> How are your people spending their time? Because you are paying them to invest their time in serving your customers and supporting your company, not sitting in meetings with no agenda.

### Build a resilient workforce

When people are connected, they’re more likely to stay in their roles—enabling businesses to retain and attract top talent.

![A graph signifying 92%, leading 50% of competitor performance](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

### Almost all workers at collaborative organizations say their work has value—versus just 50% of weak collaborators.

### Unlock every objective

When teams have clear goals that ladder up and across departments and hemispheres, their combined skillsets enable them to better support customers.

![graph showing 87%, leading competitor performance of 37%](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

### 87% of workers at companies with clear, connected goals say their organization is well-prepared to meet customer expectations—more than double those without.
