5. 1 March, 2011 Organize office spaces for The New World of Work The New World of Work = 3 pillars: People/management style: People are given space to develop themselves. A healthy balance between work and home. Move from “command and control” to self direction and own initiatives. Technology: Using of the latest technology available so that colleagues always are in touch with the information and resources they need to work, collaborate and communicate. Workspace: The office becomes a meeting place for innovation and collaboration. Spaces are re-organised to be more “task-oriented”. 5
6. 1 March, 2011 Organize office spaces for The New World of Work Results Colleagues are more energetic, they have more control over workload, get more out of themselves, work in the way that best suits them. Colleagues do more in less time. They can work from home, avoid traffic jams, use video conferencing with clients or colleagues. Focus on results, not attendance. A cultural shift towards greater openness, commitment and trust. Better employer for new talent. Because we give people space, and technology they like. Organization is greener and (cost) efficient. Less travel, less office space, and digital processes instead of paper. 6

11. 1 March, 2011 Organize office spaces for The New World of Work 11 Open office space: tips Long tables Make sure people can sit anywhere, avoid legs/drawers... Foresee 2 meter per person. This allows someone to sit in between and quickly review something Make tables deep enough (90 cm or more) Easy access to power plugs (laptop/mobile phone) Visual distraction Avoid facing people to zones with lots of movement Add “wall” of 1,2m height to create space isolation Acoustic distraction Use acoustic panels to cancel echo and noise (VERY IMPORTANT!!) Mask background noises with soft radio music Keep it open and transparent (use glass)

We don’t want to disturb people who are working! Acoustic isolation Use door and walls that makes the room really quiet Use acoustic panels to cancel echo and noise Visual distraction Face the people to a window or wall so they are not disturbed by movement Use a glass door so we can see if the room is free, and who is working there Foresee 4-6 power plugs with easy access Laptop stand with large screen, keyboard, mouse and headset
