HIGH IMPACT SPACES
Bringing Offices Back to Life
Following the Covid pandemic and the ensuing increase in remote working, many offices have become ghost buildings and lost their mojo. Many necessary tasks, including research, report writing, phone and video calls, can be undertaken effectively from almost anywhere, and often better from home without the technology frustrations of technology-specific rooms.
Offices are no longer needed for the ways in which we used to work, nor should organisations mandate returns-to-the-office simply as places to undertake work that can be achieved [more] effectively remotely. The scramble to increase the number of Teams™ and Zoom™ rooms is frankly laughable, and only demonstrates a clear misunderstanding of the activity, context and motivation of activity-based work [ABW] that requires colleagues to be co-located in the office.
for Collaboration
Activity Based Work requires colleagues to work together, and yet the majority of office meeting rooms and other spaces are designed and equipped with technology that only supports one-person-at-a-time presentations. This is not collaboration.
True collaboration takes many forms, from being structured and repetitive to ad hoc and spontaneous. With communication at its heart, collaboration can call upon a myriad of business-critical experiences for co-creation with a range of stakeholders, enabling knowledge sharing within a culture of openness that fosters a sense of community and joint enterprise.
Can these objectives be achieved in a video-first corporate meeting room where one person shares information at a time? No they can’t, because frankly you can be as effective sitting at home in isolation replacing your commute time with purposeful activities.
True collaboration requires new office spaces – High Impact Spaces - with different technology - collaborative technology - furniture and interiors that give you the opportunity to be successful. Correctly specified High Impact Spaces will act as destination spaces that colleagues will want to commute to, for working together and achieving business outcomes that they can’t accomplish on video calls alone.
T1V’s ThinkHub is a collaboration platform that enables anyone, anywhere, to work simultaneously with content from multiple sources. No more waiting for someone to stop sharing, just contextual information to drive the co-creation of inventions, innovation and imaginations further.
for Digital Storytelling
Is there anything duller, more mind-numbing to both the presenter and the audience, than watching a chain of PowerPoint slides that constrain conversation and flow with a linear ordering of content that it’s almost impossible to deviate from?
What if instead your customer engagement had interactive maps, timelines and product showcases that support the conversation as it flows, engaging customers with details of your corporate history, technical capabilities, future vision and more.
T1V’s Story puts the power of Digital Storytelling into the eyes and minds of key clients, investors, suppliers and more. The more you engage them, the more value you build.
High Impact Rooms support immersive in-room collaboration, enable digital storytelling in Customer Engagement Centres and, for distributed global teams working on critical projects, High Impact Rooms incorporate everyone, anywhere, equally to contribute, control, and create.
