Visioning & Innovation

We share visions of the future as well as the forces that are driving change and shaping the new world of work through interactive workshops that help people understand and define the opportunities for innovation. Through sharing our first-hand knowledge of the world’s most innovative workplaces, together with new technologies, products and ideas, case studies and visions of the future, we can help shape and define a project, establish what is in scope and out of scope, test people’s attitude to ideas and appetite for change. We can then develop concepts and establish the parameters and framework for success, including the right professional team.

Our Workplace Visioning helps our clients to answer the following questions:

What are others like us doing to solve problems in the workplace?
How is the world of work and the workplace changing?
What new technologies should we explore?
What products are redefining the workplace?
Which companies have innovated and what have they achieved?
How do we stay ahead of the curve and futureproof our building?

Our Process

Inspire

We create energy and excitement at the commencement of a project, helping to define a more thoughtful brief, giving people insight and foresight to allow better decisions and allowing the project team or steering committee to explore opportunities for innovation

Identify

We identify key trends across the themes that impact thinking on people, place and technology

Understand

We get to know your business – there is no panacea or universal solution – and any concept has to be appropriate and tailored

We share knowledge on the most interesting workplaces around the world through our consultancy and our sister organisation, the WORKTECH Academy www.worktechacademy.com

Traditional approaches to R&D often fail because ‘you don’t know what you don’t know’. Our consultancy team has extensive knowledge and experience of workplace innovation around the world. We can use this to help you understand the ‘art of the possible’, discovering the success stories of others, building a cohesive and inspiring vision and presenting a range of possible futures.

Our leadership has written some of the leading books on the future of work and the workplace and are seen as thought leaders and commentators in the field. Our WORKTECH Academy is at the forefront of global knowledge and research, publishing some of the most important reports and papers on the future of work and the workplace.
