The New Normal – Paul Patenall (ep. 1)

British Council for Offices - A podcast by British Council for Offices

SHOW LESSCOVID-19 has changed the way we work. For the first time ever, the nation is working from home en masse. Office desks have been swapped for kitchen tables, meetings for video calls and suits for sweatpants.  Already, this shift is posing new questions about the future of work and, in particular, the office.  Will working from home become the ‘new normal’? If so many people can do their jobs from home, do firms really need to take out so much office space? How can the ‘future office’ learn from our present situation?  Richard Kauntze, Chief Executive of the BCO, speaks with Paul Patenall, BCO President and Projects Director at U+I.  Receive the BCO newsletter and stay up to date with future #bcoevents / webinars:  Visit http://www.bco.org.uk/Events/Events.aspx
