Facility Management is a $1.1 trillion industry and growing. More than ever, companies have started to take an interest in how they can improve workplace interaction and productivity.
Among the many things 2020 has taught us, one of the most valuable lessons we’ve learned is that the hybrid work-from-home model is effective for productivity—and creating a sustainable workspace is critical to the current population. Peter Ankerstjerne, Chief Strategic Officer of Planon, knows the importance of creating a co-working environment and just how companies can use data to put their offices to better use.
In this week's episode of Watching Paint Dry, host Greg Owens is joined by Peter Ankerstjerne, Chief Strategic Officer of Planon, and Chairman of the Board of IFMA. They discuss the future of remote work, how data can help businesses become sustainable, and why the workplace will become an even bigger social hub in the next ten years. Peter shares why co-working spaces are needed more than ever during the pandemic and the unique opportunity hotels and resorts have to step into the co-working industry.
