About my talk

At work, we are influenced by what we see and experience every day. As organisations embrace ‘activity-based working’ practices, this influences both workers and how work is done, and alters what it means to collaborate, cooperate and delegate.

This presentation will focus on five key areas of influence and their impact on workplace design. This perspective, delivered from the viewpoint of the building architect, will explore how workspace design influences staff behavior, communicates with staff and visitors, and impacts activities, processes and productivity.
