Key learnings:
1. Productivity can occur anywhere, not just at the office:
- Pre-COVID-19, remote workers were more engaged and had a better workplace experience than office workers
- During the pandemic, effective team collaboration has reached new heights, through better leverage of remote collaborative technology, and the ability to focus was upheld
- 73% of the workforce believes companies should embrace some level of working from home
- Human connection and social bonding are suffering, impacting connection to corporate culture and learning
- Younger generations are reporting more challenges working from home
- The workplace will no longer be a single location but an ecosystem of a variety of locations and experiences to support convenience, functionality and wellbeing
- The purpose of the office will be to provide inspiring destinations that strengthens cultural connection, learning, bonding with customers and colleagues, and supports innovation
- Current footprint sizes will remain steady, balancing social distancing’s relaxing of space density with less office space headcount demand in the new total workplace strategy
