Workshop: How do I define the user value of an office from an HR perspective? 

The world of work is changing rapidly and with it the demands on modern office environments. HR departments and companies are facing major challenges: Skills shortages, employer attractiveness, generational change, wellbeing and new leadership are just some of the issues that concern us.
In this workshop, we will address the following questions: What do we need to offer in order to attract new employees and retain existing ones? And above all: How can HR, organisation and interior design contribute to this?
