Welcome back to the weekly Work Management Roundup. This week, we focus on success.

The old-fashioned way of working is quickly becoming outdated and inefficient. Working set hours, coming into the office everyday, and sitting at standard cubicles has all become obsolete as mobile productivity and remote work continues to spread. With work management evolving, marketers are pushing hard to keep up.

Today we are excited to announce the release of our latest report, How Marketers Get Things Done: The State of Agile Marketing in 2016.
