10. “Rather than thinking of the office as a place primarily for
solitary activity, from which workers occasionally break out
to settings intended for social activity, many workers see
the office as a sociable setting from which private places
9
for concentration and confidentiality are occasionally
sought”.

15. 14
What do these trends mean for corporate organisations?

16. 15
The trends prompting the growth of
Coworking are also prompting changes to
the traditional working styles of larger,
corporate organisations. This is manifested
in the adoption of Activity Based Working.

17. 16
Activity Based Working to design your
office in such a way that it supports work activities
optimally, rather than drawing a boundary around its
user’s personal spaces.

18. 17
“As competition for skills
increases, and large corporations
start to compete directly with
media and technology companies
to attract young talent, they will
start to invest significantly in
their workplaces and workplace
technology. They will offer better
work environments and more
flexibility in the same way the
technology industry has done in the
past ten years.”

19. Organisations believe by adopting smarter and more agile
methods of work they will greater satisfy and motivate their
staff which will aid retention and attraction, but also offer
18
productivity gains and reduced spatial requirements.
