Surviving the “Tab Apocalypse” | Patrick Monnot, Pod Change Enablers, a podcast by Tango

    • Technology

How many tabs do you have open right now? 10? 20? 50?

If you feel personally attacked for having one-too-many tabs up, welcome to the "Tab Apocalypse", a phrase coined by Patrick Monnot, Founder & CEO of Pod, the AI workspace for B2B sellers.

"It's the concept that knowledge workers are overwhelmed with using too many applications, which leads to a lot of inefficiencies, lack of productivity, and cognitive overload." 

To take it one step further, according to a Harvard Business Review study, digital workers toggle between tabs and apps 1,200 times a day, on average. That adds up to four hours of context switching in just one week. In other words, we're wasting about 10% of our work week, every week.

The solution? According to Patrick, it comes down to having the information that you need to be productive when and where it's most helpful.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:
• The status quo of sales–and where Enablement is missing the mark
• The effects of the "Tab Apocalypse" (and how to survive it) 
• What real time enablement (RTE) looks like in practice
• How an RTE approach can transform the traditional employee onboarding experience
