How close are you to your information "breaking point"

In 2010, LexisNexis conducted an international study of white collar workers.  They looked at their attitudes to and experiences of information in the workplace.

Of the findings that came out of this survey there are two we feel important to look at:

• Half of white collar professionals say that if the amount of information they receive continues to increase, they will soon reach a breaking point where they cannot handle anymore.
• Approximately one in two white collar professionals surveyed report feeling demoralized when they can't manage all the information that comes their way at work.

In looking at these findings, what caught our attention was the emotion behind them - "breaking point" and "demoralised" -  which is the human cost of our information-rich world.  

We know that when we designed Unified Inbox (click here for release information) we put a lot of thought into how to manage these increasing information flows, because to us, our work is what we love but sometimes we need a bit of technological help to keep it that way.  We hope we can keep your work that way too!
