Modernize Multitasking —
with the NEW ThinkBook Plus
Ready for the new
digital natives?
The balance is tipping in workplaces around the globe. Millennials and Generation Z together now make up 59% of the average workforce, outnumbering previous generations and transforming office dynamics.
This new wave of talent has grown up in a digital world. They are innately tech savvy and natural multi-taskers, always on the look-out for new technology that can help them do more, faster, better. Research shows that 70% keep their smartphone within eye contact at all times1.
They switch between tasks a staggering 300 time every day.
2.1 hours
That's the amount of time that the average knowledge worker loses per day re-focusing as they switch between tasks2. Multiply that across workdays and your workforce headcount and the emerging productivity challenge becomes clear.
87% of SMB buyers believe improving employee productivity is a high or critical priority for their business in the next 12 months*

A new laptop
experience
It's time for a new breed of device: a laptop designed to combat the negative impacts of multitasking by better supporting all the different type of tasks that work involves. This technology should help people to better collaborate in-person or virtual meetings where ideas may be conceptualized, decisions made and progress reviewed.
It should help them create and process information and better review work documents: reading, editing and annotating work.

Create smarter
Pictures speak volumes, so the new ThinkBook Plus frees you to sketch your ideas onto the closed cover screen with the digital pen and convert your sketches into diagrams via OneNote:
- Sketch. Create illustrations and diagrams by sketching on the cover screen with a digital pen. Instantly convert into diagrams or drawings, then insert into presentations and documents via OneNote.
