The nature of global business today means people often need to work as part of geographically dispersed teams. As such, organisations around the globe are looking to improve the way employees collaborate and share knowledge, even if they are collaborating across large distances. The complexity of dealing with distributed knowledge workers is heightened by the increasing struggle by individuals to extract and make sense of the huge amounts of data that needs to be processed in order to extract meaningful insights within their work context. The HxI Initiative is a new national initiative in Australia, which is driven by these overarching business drivers. Research is planned and conducted to improve the ability of humans to interact with information, their colleagues and their environments in the modern organization.
