Modern Workplace

Despite how the workplace has changed over the years, it’s sole focus for most businesses continues to be productivity and focus. 
 

But with more video conferencing, hybrid working, and collaboration, the word focus is not something that many would associate with the offices of today. Too much distraction, open space, and noise have become the main culprits of why people tend to avoid office environments for focus work. 

When it comes to collaboration, variety of spaces is key. To get this right we need to think about the type of collaboration your team will be doing. What kind of technology is going to help them? Do they need aids such as interactive whiteboards and writeable surfaces to help the process? 
With more hybrid teams than we’ve ever seen, video conferencing, interactive displays, and wireless presentation systems have also become essential to seamless collaborative experiences.
 

The question is, how easily can your team work with one another in your current workplace? 

Virtual meetings, hybrid meetings, informal meetings, stand-up meetings, board meetings… 
 

The days of sitting down at a conference table with notepads for every meeting are long gone as people continue to experiment with how they meet. The challenge that creates however, is designing spaces that give people positive meeting experiences.

Think about the meetings in your business...

Studies have shown that taking regular breaks at work can reduce stress levels, improve cognitive performance, and creativity. For many of our clients, with this in mind, breakout spaces are of equal importance to those created for work tasks.
 

So, when it comes to recharge spaces, what do we need to think about?

• Is there privacy so you can unwind away from distractions?
• Do you have somewhere comfortable, maybe with a more residential feel?
• Are your breakout areas accessible to all physical abilities?
