Of course, learning and development, leadership and culture are keyingredients, but believing the workplace should also be at the heart of this debate, CBREundertook a unique study on employee health. In a groundbreaking study, the Universityof Twente and CBRE explored the relationship between people's working environmentand their health, well-being and ability to perform. The outcome exceeded allexpectations.1030Key Predictors to Wellbeing and Performance- Nicola Gillen and Charlotte Hermans, AECOMBased on a holistic approach to wellbeing, AECOM is undertaking a new body ofresearch to investigate key predictors of wellbeing and performance in office workerpopulations. A comprehensive model has been tested to identify the most influentialfactors of work (e.g., job design, management, culture) vs. workplace (e.g., quality ofwork settings, noise, air quality) in predicting physical, mental, social, intellectual,spiritual and material dimensions of wellbeing, performance and satisfaction. Nicola andCharlotte will present findings of two initial tests of the model.1100The Privacy Appraisal Model for Open Plan Offices: Why privacy impairment leadsto stress & fatigue at work and what we can do about it- Clara Weber, University of Applied Sciences Zurich (ZHAW) & University of SurreyPrivacy impairment is a frequently reported issue in open plan offices, yet theconsequences on workers’ wellbeing remain unclear. To investigate, the study builds oncognitive appraisal theory and an established privacy regulation model. Results of twosurveys (n 238, 109) on UK office workers showed that unmet privacy needs predictstress, fatigue and dissatisfaction at work. Three environmental variables were found toinfluence the privacy experience in the office.1130Coffee
1200Designing for Collaboration- Sally Augustin, Design With SciencePsychologists and other social scientists have done scores of research studies to learnmore about relationships between workplace design, communication, and collaboration.This review integrates cognitive science research findings related to designing spacesthat support knowledge worker collaboration and presents practical applications ofinsights drawn. Studies published during the last 10 years are emphasized.1230'A social discours on social coercion' by a secret author in the manner ofLaurence Sterne.- Robert Bishop, Cabinet Office / ArcadisIf we change the language of the workplace, then we can change the culture of theworkplace. RICS has commissioned a ‘book of guidance’ on the subject of changemanagement. The result is a discussion of the subject written in 18th century English –as a method of disrupting our perceptions and re-engaging in a subject upon which somany books have already been written and so, an it please your worships, pray listen tomy ‘discours on social coercion’ for your entertainment and your instruction.1300Lunch1400Afternoon Chair’s Welcome BackNeil Usher, Executive Consultant at Unispace & workessence1405The importance of good lighting conditions in the workplaceJessica Wahlberg and Tom Miles, LUCTRAWe now spend 90% of our time indoors, particularly during the working week, but thereis a huge discrepancy between the electric light we sit under all day and natural daylight.Using research undertaken in Germany as a foundation, we can now draw someimportant conclusions as to how light truly affects our health.1415Dispelling workplace myths- Tim Oldman, LeesmanUsing data from the world’s largest workplace effectiveness database, Leesmanexamines five key areas that are responsible for workplace effectiveness. Thepresentation will review the impact of a more mobile workforce, whether there is anytruth in generational differences, what workplaces need to make an employee feelproductive and offers a warning to those that think a new workplace is a shortcut tobetter performance.1445The obvious may be wrong: hypothesis-testing with simulation- William Fawcett, CAR Activity-Space SimulationData collection and analytics about the workplace do not provide a sufficient basis forforecasting the consequences of management change. Simulation modelling is the keyto exploring future workplace scenarios. Simulation can also investigate conventionalassumptions about the workplace, such as the apparently self-evident assumption thatmoving to workstation-sharing is incompatible with workstation territoriality. Simulationmodelling shows this is wrong: a high success rate in meeting individual preferences isachieved even when workstations are shared.
1515Workplace analytics – comfort, health and wellbeing- Daniel Knott, Buro HappoldWhat makes a successful workplace environment? Can we measure it? We will presentour latest progress in the area linking people, space and environment through themonitoring and analysis of an office building. Our approach brings IOT data together withadvanced people analysis into our web visualisation platform SmartViz for interactiveexploration of the data. We aim at presenting key findings of our studies and open thediscussion towards future application of such technologies.1545Tea1615Defining and Measuring Productivity in Offices- Adam Mactavish, Currie & Brown and Rob Harris, RamidusA review the BCO’s recent report on defining and measuring productivity in offices.Beginning with the need for better working environments, and then considering theattributes of healthy, efficient, effective and engaging workplaces, the presentationdraws on examples from both new and existing buildings to illustrate the characteristicsthat enhance workplace performance. A simple measurement framework is proposedthat enables CRE professionals to assess a workplace and then take practical stepsapplicable to their circumstances.1645Art for Work’s Sake : The benefits of encouraging creativity in the workplace.- Doug Shaw, The Consulting ArtistIBM interviewed 1,500 CEOs across 60 nations. 60% of the respondents believecreativity is the most important quality to have in business.PWC interviewed 1,379 CEOs in 2017, almost a quarter see innovation as their toppriority in the coming year. The challenge they face is how to cultivate it.This session explores the benefits of creativity at work, why sustaining creative culturecan be challenging, and how we can overcome those challenges.1715Chair’s Closing Remarks, followed by1720approxDrinks Social1830Close
