Are you ready to work remotely?

RemotAbility. Assess, benchmark, and manage remote workplaces from one central hub.

This week, on Starting Remote, we talk with Deepak Selvaratnam about RemotAbility, a tool built to help organizations and individuals understand if they are ready to enter the world of remote work. It is a legally aligned assessment, checklist & benchmark that can be easily turned into a series of action items.

Deepak is the founder and co-developer of Snapshotz & RemotAbility

Snapshotz is an online assessment and benchmarking tool for Contact Centres. Launched in 2009 Snapshotz is being employed by close to 3000 contact centers across Australasia, Africa, the Middle East, North America, Latin America, and China.

RemotAbility is built on the Snapshotz platform and experience. A tool supporting organizations to understand their readiness for moving remotely

Besides RemotAbility, Deepak is sharing with us:

- His experience in working with more than 2800 contact centers around the world
