I'm not sure Sugar's comments can be separated from where he *now* makes his money... Commercial real estate. Of course he wants people back in offices!
Hi Julia, Great post. I work for a large corporation. Before the pandemic I worked in a large open plan office which I hated. I never felt I could do any meaningful, deep work. I went in to socialise. I am so much more productive, happy and healthy since working at home. I feel it’s a shame it took a pandemic to allow me (and others like me) to be effective and more content. Phil Martin
Thank you, Julia. I will. I have your The Nowhere Office book which I’m looking forward to diving into. Rory Sutherland, whose book and work I love, mentioned you, on a podcast, in the context of the purpose of the office. Fascinating topic. Phil...
