NEW WORK. NEW RULES.
The latest edition of 360° magazine discusses the new aspects and changing principles of teamwork. In today’s world, complex problems require an advanced work environment tailored to problem-solving. In addition to technology and other tools, flexibility and freedom are key requirements for a workplace. Finally, it is important to promote an active work culture that enables employees to deliver outstanding work.
FAST FORWARD
In another 10 years, your current office will seem as quaint as a rotary phone on the kitchen wall. By carefully analyzing the signals of change that surround us today, Steelcase researchers formulated seven fascinating scenarios for how and where work might occur just one decade from today. Thrilling or sobering, they’re sure to stimulate a point of view about a future that will be very different from what we’re experiencing today.
INSIDE INNOVATION
The culture of any company is about habits, but it’s also about habitats. With global competition and disruption coming from all sides, it’s clear the world is changing fast.
The places where people work shape their behaviors, and this can ultimately lead to a change in organizational culture. Workplace design can foster innovation by creating spaces that help people experiment, take risks, and learn as much from what doesn’t work as what does.
THE CREATIVE SHIFT
To stay innovative and to solve increasingly complex challenges, companies need creative thinking. Yet the majority of employees don’t believe that they can use their creative potential at work. Read how the integration of people, place and technology can help creativity thrive at work.
THE OFFICE RENAISSANCE
A global cultural movement is redefining the corporate workplace – from a singular focus on efficiency, towards a pluralistic approach that enriches the emotional, cognitive and physical wellbeing of people. In the quest for talent and the escalating need for employee engagement, a societal shift advocating for informal, authentic and inspiring spaces has taken hold.
THINK BETTER
Too much information and near-constant distraction make it difficult to work concentrated and can cause stress. Thoughtfully designed workplaces and concepts can help workers to manage their attention better.
MAKING DISTANCE DISAPPEAR
In order to overcome virtual and physical barriers as well as to reach the full potential of a team, it is important to have state-of-the-art technology and modern facilities.
PRIVATE SPHERE IN CRISIS
In the interim, many workstations focus on cooperation, leaving little time for disruption-free and quiet working. For employees, however, opportunities to retreat are important and have a decisive impact on their motivation as well as on the quality of their work.
WELLBEING: A TOPIC WHERE THERE ARE ONLY WINNERS
People who feel comfortable at work are more motivated, more creative and contribute decisively towards the success and innovative strength of a company.
THE NEW IQ
Companies around the world use every possible opportunity to boost their innovation quotient. Yet one key success factor is often overlooked: the role played by physical space and intelligently-configured workstations.
THE NEXT OFFICE
The potential for workspaces to boost innovative strength and corporate growth is often underestimated. However, if it proves possible to use all available means with networked workplaces, competitive advantages can be created even in economically difficult times.
