Value Bombs:
- Coming back into the office has to be a better experience than working from home. - Caleb
- In order for businesses to be competitive, they have to have an experience for people to come into to attract people to their company. But they also have to empower employees and give them the choice of when they come in. - Caleb
- The younger generation wants flexibility. They need to see each other and to come back to the office, but they want to do it when they want - and when they need - to do it. - Audrey
- A target of the office today is that it represents the brand of the company. The first thing someone sees during an interview is the place they’ll be working. - Audrey
- A demand that we are seeing across Europe is wanting to have some flexibility with coworking spaces. - Audrey
