Heard on NPR..."Designing The Modern Office Space"
I was pleasantly surprised to hear a segment on the Diane Rehm Show last week regarding office design and its impact on productivity in the workplace. This discussion reminded me of an article I recently read about research Gensler has done on open-office work environments and it's toll on productivity and collaboration.
I've included links to both the NPR program and article below. In summary...a balanced approach with a mix of work environments that promote different work modes (focused work, collaboration and learning) lead to a higher-performing workplace.
