SUMMARY:Workplace Design & Productivity
DESCRIPTION:The ‘work-place’ is no more about physical space alone. It is a blended world of the physical and the digital. Work is what you do\, and not where you go to do it. The conventional workplace as we knew it\, will not be used to ‘get productive at work’ but to fulfill other employee needs like meetings\, collaboration and socialising. In the not so distant future\, data analysis will be able to predict as well as suggest to employees\, where they should work from on a day to day basis\, based on their schedules and deadlines. Pretty much like the way products are marketed to you online\, based on your past shopping behaviour. There will be different typologies of workplaces. In such a scenario\, how will such different workplaces need to be designed? What do Architects and Interior designers need to know now\, so that they can stay ahead of the curve? \nHear it from Raj Krishnamurthy\, founder of London based Freespace\, a technology company\, that has spent years researching the modern-day white collared worker and his/her needs. Understand the thought process behind the design of tech solutions that enables designers and organisations to better plan and manage their workplaces. Understand the considerations behind workplace design that incorporates social distance and health & safety norms. \nA short talk followed by Q&A. For Architects\, Designers and those involved in workplace design and planning.

Be alerted of future 10-min talks. \nWhen team members do not meet in person and when managers do not get to see their subordinates\, does the trust factor improve or deteriorate? Scores of co-workers work remotely today\, meeting each other occasionally\, and not as often as they used to. Bonhomie\, trust and other social habits get impacted. It is important to pay attention to building and sustaining trust\, particularly when we work apart. \nKaren Plum is the director of research and development at Advanced Workplace Associates\, the pioneer in the domain of Workplace Transformation. In a 10-min talk\, she deep dives into the world of worker wellness to talk about retaining trust amongst co-workers during times\, as large numbers of workers work remotely during the Covid 19 pandemic and beyond. Hear it from someone who has been researching the knowledge worker mindset for many years and benefit from her access to 20 years of academic research. Hosted by workplace strategist Parthajeet Sarma. \nAdd this event to your calendar.
