What is workplace strategy and why is it important?

13-Mar-2019

Workplace strategy is about studying how people work and creating a workspace that supports this. While management level perception and understanding is a key part of the findings, observations extend far deeper into things like staff personality and what environments are best suited to what tasks. It’s also important to consider workplace design and what structures, furniture and layout will best suit your working environment, and ultimately, improve productivity for your staff.
There are many benefits to developing a workplace strategy. Some of these include:

- Having the appropriate space allocations. Do you need smaller meeting rooms or more of them?

Collaboration and interaction are in the right areas. How are your staff working? Do you have teams that need to interact constantly? How would your staff like to work – in an open area or something that’s more private?
Productivity, effectiveness and morale are improved. After all – your design is based on collective feedback taken from every individual in your organisation.
It acts as a catalyst for change in staff behaviours and enables the desired culture.

It’s important to consider in your workplace strategy, what is going to bring the best out of your employees. When staff feel comfortable, trusted and appreciated they work more effectively. A simple design change like adding screens to workstations, creating storage solutions so there is less clutter and disorganisation can have a positive input to your work environment.
