Had a fantastic time attending the WORKTECH event last Friday at Samsara, the first mass timber building in San Francisco with Shannon Miles and Gloria Strimpel. The panels provided a wealth of valuable insights on how hybrid work is evolving, emphasizing the importance of designing office environments that enhance productivity, support mental health, and inspire creativity in today's rapidly changing workplace. Key takeaways: • Workplace experience isn’t just about perks like gyms and food - it’s about creating environments that empower employees to work their best. • Sound matters in office design. It’s not just about visual aesthetics but creating spaces that minimize distractions and enhance productivity, well-being, and creativity through sound management. • Partnerships and relationships are crucial to success. Building strong connections within and outside the office fosters collaboration, innovation, and growth. • AI will drive productivity, but human creativity and critical thinking remains essential. • Hybrid work is here to stay - while remote work has stabilized post-pandemic, we’re not heading for a massive return to office. Intentional office design backed by data is crucial for success in this transformed work environment. • Employee happiness is crucial for recruitment and retention. Employees typically value the ability to work from home 2-3 days a week as equivalent to an 8% increase in their salary. CEOs must consider that to keep employees in the office full-time, they may need to offer an 8% pay increase to prevent high turnover. Looking forward to seeing how these ideas shape the future of work! #FutureOfWork #HybridWork #OfficeDesign #AI #WorkplaceExperience #WORKTECH24SanFrancisco #MassTimber CORT
