A WELL-CONNECTED WORKPLACE IS A WIN-WIN

摘要

Like so many elements of our lives, digital technology has transformed, disrupted and enabled us in our place of work. It has become the key to unlocking greater efficiencies, streamlining processes and ensuring we can go about our daily business anywhere, anytime, explains Darren Zitren, head of network estate management, Cluttons. Despite its huge impact, there are still challenges when it comes to providing universally good connectivity in our workplaces.As a leading real estate adviser, we wanted to understand the key drivers of connectivity in the workplace - how landlords are responding, and the value placed on it by occupiers.What is immediately very clear is that digital connectivity has very quickly become a more important factor than transport links when it comes to the office space we choose. Our research shows that landlords are now recognising that they can improve asset performance by improving connectivity in workspaces and offices. Crucially, from an occupier's perspective, it also highlights the importance of strong connectivity in the workplace as an enabler of overall business performance.
