Virtual reality headsets have become increasingly accessible to the masses in the last few years.Â
This immersive technology is great for playing state-of-the-art video games, a primary focus of the market, but it also has the power to transform how we work.  Â
There are countless tools that aim to address the shortcomings of a remote workforce, such as Slack and Zoom, but even this technology lacks the appropriate support to keep employees connected.Â
By adopting VR technology, companies that have transitioned to more distributed operations can easily get employees together without the price and time that travel takes.Â
Because of this, companies embracing a flexible work arrangement would be wise in investing into metaverse technology. Not only is it useful for sustaining company culture, it’s also critical to prepare for the future of work.Â
The good news about modern VR tools are their customizable abilities. For instance, a worker can change their VR avatar in the metaverse to feature their personal interests, fashion choices and other virtual accessories, allowing them to make more meaningful connections with colleagues.  Â
Although the wide adoption of VR in the workplace may still be years in the future, early trials are providing prime lessons for how to be personable with coworkers, even when thousands of miles away.Â
