Scenario 4.0: New Office Working Environments
This article has been supplied.
Company Announcement - The digitization of our living and working environment is unfolding ever more rapidly. But exactly what does this working environment look like and what changes does this imply for office properties? This question is the nub of the podium discussion “Scenario 4.0: the office of the future is not an office” at EXPO REAL 2015.
Laptops, tablets and smart phones already make it possible to work not just at set times in the office or at home but at any time, wherever and whenever. This increasing flexibility may have its advantages and disadvantages but in any case the structures of the (office) working environment are changing in consequence. This will have repercussions for the demands on office properties: not just as concerns their design, but their location as well. A lively, urban environment will be sought-after like never before. Companies will also have to go to great lengths to recruit and retain employees because Generation 4.0 has not just be-come much more flexible as regards work but across the board. Whoever wishes to play a successful part in the office markets of tomorrow needs to know the way things are headed.
That is why Thomas Sattelberger, for many years responsible for human re-sources development at companies such as Deutsche Lufthansa Continental and Deutsche Telekom, Jason Harper, Real Estate Project Executive EMEA at Google, and Udo-Ernst Haner, Head of the Information Work Competence Team at the Fraunhofer IAO, will be discussing “Scenario 4.0: the office of the future is not an office" in the EXPO REAL FORUM. The event will be moderated by Gun-dula Gause, ZDF editor and newscaster. Time: Wednesday, 7 October 2015 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
