Cisco believes there are several ways in which IT can help organizations improve their environmental performance. These include improvements in energy efficiency that can be achieved from the products and systems deployed internally; using the network as a platform to monitor, measure, and manage electricity consumption; and implementing solutions that empower flexible, collaborative working processes to reduce the need for travel. This paper focuses on the potential gains accrued from an approach to innovation and collaboration that is strategically aligned to both the business and environmental agendas in the coming decades. It focuses on practical measures, from remote and mobile working to virtual meetings, and new ways to rethink the use of office space that will allow the business to keep growing in size.
