flexible working – Is This Future Shock?

My company is going through one of it’s regular turns – where we want our people to be working in the office – in a shared location.

There’s lots of advantages

It helps us collaborate

There’s lots of studies that show it’s better (I’ll add a link if I ever find them)

There is, of course, another view. It happens to be one I share, but I’d welcome your comments.

I’m surprised I have to repeat myself about this, but as I said in 2009(!) Homeworking builds team work – and communities

Oh, those nice open plan, shared spaces that aid collaboration? Not *everyone* thinks they do.
