Office: Container or Content of Work?
Yves Morieux, Boston Consulting Group
Content
This workshop will explore the extent to which work – both as instrument of value creation and means for people’s realization – really requires co-location. Many so-called benefits of co-presence in a shared workplace seem to be just substitutes to compensate for deficiencies in the real content of work: purpose, complementarities, relational productivity irrespective of where people are seating, connectedness (as opposed to just proximity), cooperation (as opposed to just co-location)… Optimal solutions for the future of work will be discussed, depending on what requires and does not require “the office”.
