Ep. 238: Evidence for the Contribution of the Office, the Value of Gathering and “Fixing Work” in 2023 with Neil Usher of GoSpace AI

Neil Usher is Chief Workplace & Change Strategist at GoSpace AI, the author of three books, and an internationally experienced senior property, workplace, facilities and change leader. Recorded live in London, Mike Petrusky asks Neil if there is evidence for the value of people being together and how workplace leaders can measure the contribution of the office. They explore the power of in-person gatherings, question whether the office is the right place for physical connection, and seek to find balance through nuanced discussion that avoids polarizing views. Mike last met with Neil four years ago in New York City during the promotion of “The Elemental Workplace” and he discovered “Elemental Change” during the early months of the pandemic. Now, they kick off another New Year embracing a “spirit of punk” by testing the concepts discussed before the pandemic, all while challenging listeners with ways of “fixing” work, the topic of Neil’s latest book.
