Let's talk about meeting rooms. Meeting rooms aren’t as efficient as they could be. On average, just 1.78 people occupy a room, no matter its size. Why? Because the way we work has changed - a meeting that once required a large conference room now likely involves just 1-2 people in the room, with others joining virtually. For workplace leaders, this shift is a golden opportunity to rethink and right-size your spaces to boost efficiency. Curious about how to make the most of your meeting rooms? Dive into our latest Occupancy Intelligence Index for all the details and expert recommendations.  ➡ https://lnkd.in/esYHfp7m #OccupancyIntelligence #MeetingRooms #Workplace #VergeSense

Summer’s winding down, and we all know what that means… 😰 Back-to-school shopping is in full swing (who doesn’t love new pens and folders?), but what about your back-to-the-office shopping list? We'll go first: 🤓 A fresh mindset - hello refreshed creativity! 🛋 Comfy desk setup – ergonomic chairs, anyone? 🎶 A killer playlist – for those Monday morning motivation sessions. ☕ Coffee (lots of it) – because we’re going to need it. 🎉 New goals – it’s time to hit the ground running for the rest of the year! What's on your list?

✨ A New Era for the Office As we reach the halfway point of 2024, the workplace landscape has transformed in remarkable ways. Across the globe, enterprises have fully embraced flexible work strategies, restructured their operations, and are now stepping into the future. Here's what's happening: ➡ Adopting cutting-edge technology, like AI, to boost efficiency ➡ Designing agile workspaces to cater to diverse work styles ➡ Redefining what it means to "go to the office" A few years ago, we predicted that the office would evolve into a hub for collaboration—whether virtual, hybrid, or in-person. Today, utilization data confirms that this shift is well underway: ➡ People are spending nearly 3x more time actively using collaboration spaces than focus spaces ➡Desks and Offices have a higher percentage of passive time usage than any other space type.  ➡ The average number of people occupying a room regardless of the meeting room’s capacity is 1.78. Yet, many spaces remain primarily designed for focus work. This presents a unique opportunity for workplace leaders to rethink and redesign their environments to better align with how employees truly work. How can you stay ahead of the curve?

The office has gone through a major transformation over the last several years. ➡️ Static 1-to-1 employee-to-seat ratios have evolved to dynamic hybrid work environments ➡️ Enterprises are adapting fluid policy changes embracing flexible workplace strategies ➡️ Leaders have access to more data than ever before, and AI has started to play an important role in decision making We know this evolution is far from over. We’re noticing new trends and patterns in space design, and usage all over the globe. Right now, making impactful workplace decisions is more important than ever before. We’re lucky to have access to more data than ever, but for many, analyzing data and actually turning it into impactful decisions is challenging and time consuming.
