What makes a good place to work? That all depends on what you do.
When it comes to workplace projects we understand that there is not a one-size-fits all answer. Open office or private offices? Assigned desks or hotelling? Meeting rooms or open meeting areas? As we rack our brains with these questions what holds true universally is that to be effective, the workplace needs to be aligned with the work. So let’s focus on getting that part right at the same time as crunching area per workstation.
We also need to not lose sight that successful workplaces are just that – “places.” Just as neighborhoods are made good by the accessible mix of housing, retail, foodservice, offices, and parks, so too are workplaces made good by the mix of individual work spaces, collaboration spaces, recharge spaces, play spaces, and eating spaces.
