Caleb & Dharshni in the podcast studio at XCHG

What role does the office play in the future of work?

In recent times we've seen news headlines (and LinkedIn posts) pointing to the extremes of return to office (RTO) mandates and fully remote (WFH/WFA) policies.

I didn't want to dive into those topics.

What happens across the global often varies per organisation, and even per team within a company. Though generally there's a lot of optimisation happening.

So I wanted to tap into the mind of an enterprise customer.

Decoupling Headcount From Square Footage

For this Caleb Parker Show episode, I was joined by Dharshni Singh , a dynamic corporate real estate leader with over 20 years experience in transforming organizations and unlocking human potential for exceptional outcomes at companies like?Accenture and BCG, tp bennett and more...

Dharshni has in-depth knowledge and expertise across Future of Work strategic planning, portfolio & site strategy investment prioritization, business case development, transactions, and capital projects for cross-sector international firms.

She says companies are decoupling headcount from square footage.

We go on to discuss strategic and tactical approaches for aligning real estate strategy to support future of work strategy.

Our conversation covers:

  • Change management
  • Practical timelines
  • Building selection criteria
  • Whether landlord brands play a role in building selection
  • Wellbeing and amenities
  • Flex space
  • Network of spaces

This is a brilliant conversation for corporate real estate executives, as well as office investors, landlords and operators. Enjoy!

Caleb Parker Dave Cairns a Minister in the new UK Govt has just pronounced that the Civil Service "should return to their offices and desks". It's as if the last four years have not happened. This is a signal failure to understand that the "office work" talent market has undergone a seismic shift and that "the toothpaste cannot be put back in the tube". As per usual, the best talent will migrate to better offers. All for the sake of ideological purity. Sigh.

By far my most engaging convo whilst in London was with Dharshni Singh so I have no doubt this is a chat for the history books!
