In many workplaces, online communication is now more common than face to face meetings. Do the advantages of this trend outweigh the disadvantages?

Multiple organizations tend to change their work culture,

this

is something nature demands.

However

, many companies are on their way to fully accepting it but while doing that they

face

some challenges and inconveniences too.In my opinion, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. To start with some positive factors, the

first

and very crucial point would be, online

communication

saves lots of

time

and unnecessarily travelling.

For example

, some people argue that they do not get enough

time

to spend on themselves and their hobbies. So virtual meetings will help them to utilize their free

time

for their own activities.

In addition

,

this

will reduce traffic congestion on roads and places will be less crowded.

Hence

, people will spend some extra hours with their family. Along with

this

some negatives

also

can be pointed out, like individuals can express their ideas more freely in-person

communication

and they get

time

to know each other and there would be less tension in the air,

moreover

in the

face

to

face

,

communication

there will be bare minimum chances for misunderstanding and discrepancy.

For instance

, If the tutor is good at taking classroom lectures but if he has to take online lectures

then

it would be difficult for him to convey his knowledge to his students. To conclude, companies should give liberty to their employees to choose in between as well as we have to maintain the balance of online and

face

to

face

communication

for those who are comfortable with either of them.
