Value Bombs and tweetables

We need to stop talking about sqft and cost per sqft and talk about outcome - how the space works for a business.
We’re using net promoter scores to see how people like working in a building
We want to understand what the occupier is using a space for, the right conditions to make that catagory of business work and measure metrics to understand if the space is successful for a business
Stop thinking about productivity gain, and start thinking about providing a space that gives people a chance to be successful.
Positive outcomes enable premium rents.
Service will be the differentiator when offices are a commodity
People will stay in buildings longer that provide a great service thereby reducing void periods and directly affecting building valuations.
Many assets won't be able to keep up with the changes in market demands, and we'll see some stranded assets which are difficult to exit.
It's about what can be done to protect investments from decreasing in value.
