how do we make the office desirable again?

All of our guests so far on the Work is Weird Now podcast have touched on the physical workplace, so it made sense that we opened up the conversation around the role the office will play in the future of work.

To explore the topic, we invited Head of Workplace Strategy at AIS, Leeson Medhurst to explore the evolving dynamics of workplace design and strategy, emphasising the importance of hybrid work policies, employee well-being, and the role of technology in shaping modern office environments.

Key takeaways:
- Hybrid work policies haven’t been given enough time to mature and evolve
- Back-to-the-office policies are fundamentally flawed in a world full of bountiful choice
- The term “working from home” is undermining the case for hybrid working
- The novelty paradox: why novelty in office design must be a key consideration in office design
- Why real estate and financial decisions shouldn’t trump employee engagement
