The technology has facilitated leaps in productivity, collaboration, and connectivity with others that were unimaginable a few decades ago. Also, it may limit opportunities to develop deep levels of self-awareness and to behave authentically, especially among those who spend lots of time in online worlds and working with avatars. Managers and organizations need to consider how to address the possibility of reduced self-awareness and authenticity among members of the digital workforce while also remaining aware of the ways that technology might be used to promote healthy identity development. To be sure, the prevalence of technology in our daily lives may impact the quality of our interactions with others and may possibly to a decline in our level of empathy (cognitive understanding of another’s perspective and an affective response to another’s experiences). More research is needed to fully understand how digitally mediated communication may influence communication, relationship quality, and empathy, especially in the workplace (Colbert et al., 2016).
