We worked with Oracle on an “AI at Work” study in order to understand how organizations can address employee mental health using artificial intelligence. Between July 16 and August 4th, 2020, 12,347 c-suite, HR leaders, managers, and employees were surveyed in 11 countries to explore leadership and employee attitudes around mental health, artificial intelligence, digital assistants, chatbots, and robots in the workplace.
Reference
“Oracle partnered with Workplace Intelligence to develop research that explores the rapidly-evolving relationship between humans and technology. They always bring a well-informed perspective on key business and societal trends, which is instrumental in shaping the direction, focus, and narrative of our joint research. Workplace Intelligence never fails to amaze me with their passion, intensity, commitment to quality, and relentless focus on achieving the desired results and delivering the best value for their clients. I’m looking forward to collaborating with them on future projects that will continue to drive the conversations around the future of work.”
