As a leader, I’ve learned that offices are a huge part of company culture. In fact, the Human Spaces report on workplace design found that employees in offices with natural elements reported 15 percent higher levels of well-being, were six percent more productive and experienced 15 percent more creativity. Perhaps most telling is that 33 percent of respondents said office design affects whether they even accept a job.
Top-level tech companies have known this for years. Many of them may have started in garages, but they’ve become famous for game rooms, kitchens and collaborative work areas.
