Technology companies have long been leaders in creating workplaces that attract key talent and foster creativity and collaboration. Others look at the example set by tech firms when creating their own workplaces to maximize productivity and compete in the war for talent. However, tech firms differ from one another in their approach to workforce mobility and workplace design. The lesson to be learned from the tech sector is that optimal workplace strategy is not a particular set of outcomes, but a deliberate process that leads each organization to a solution-set that best aligns with its unique position and goals.

Topics in this session included:

• How workplace strategy has evolved at tech firms in recent years
• How different strategies reflect the goals and strategies of different firms
• About various workplace strategies in other sectors as labor competition intensifies
• Steps to develop a workplace strategy that furthers your business goals
