Over the years, offices have shifted from merely being a physical space for employees to work to being a place where meaningful relationships are fostered. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has forced companies around the world to embrace new ways of working.
We are now seeing workplaces evolve to become a more collaborative environment even when employees interact remotely. This proves that workplace transformation is happening and highlights the need for industry leaders to incorporate new ways of working in their company’s HR policies and redesigning workspaces to suit the new normal.
