How Great Workplace Design Improves Productivity and Profitability

Having a beautiful work space is one thing, but ensuring it allows for everyone to perform at their best takes much more than pretty pictures on the wall. In this episode of my ‘Wine and Wisdom’ show called ‘How Great Workplace Design Improves Productivity and Profitability’ I speak with the very talented Annelie Xenofontos from Axiom Workplaces.

We discuss:

  1. How you design for different organisations and how it is different? Isn’t office space roughly the same?
  2. What is the best advice when it comes to embarking on a workplace transformation journey?
  3. What are the pitfalls when first communicating potential workspace changes to staff?
  4. Plus lots lots more. 🙂

You can either watch the Q&A here, or read the full transcript below.
