What we do
Key elements of our workplace strategy services:
- We begin with your business. Working with C-suite leaders, we seek to answer the fundamental question: ‘What is your business trying to achieve?’ Using your business goals, we help you leverage leadership, culture, technology and space to innovate and improve competitive advantage across the board.
- Discovery process. Using a range of methods, tools and technologies, we gather, analyse, and synthesise a wide range of data and information from all areas across your organisation to help us understand how you work. Once we have analysed and synthesised, we play back the results to ensure that we have covered all the bases and to develop a road map for moving forward.
- Dynamic space modelling. Once we’ve conducted all the workshops, interviews and gathered data, we can dynamically model space utilisation. This allows for responsible utilisation of the workspace over time, helping your real estate teams to more effectively manage the total cost of portfolio utilisation.
- Playbooks. We work with all your workstream leaders to integrate the overall approach into real estate, facilities, workplace experience design, IT, HR, and all other workstreams impacted by a new workplace strategy.
Why AWA
At AWA, we see workplace strategy as key approach to making your business more effective and more agile; consciously and meticulously linking to your business goals, strategy, culture and context. We help you work out the best practices, cultures, technologies, and spaces needed to support business success and help your people be the best they can be.
Our workplace strategy is research and science-based
Our workplace strategy services are based on our research into the six factors that matter most for high performing teams. We use these six factors to assess how well your workplace is meeting your goals at key moments during the process.
Our workplace strategy approach reflects key industry metrics and trends:
- Today’s workplace is a virtual, connected, social platform key to staff retention and wellbeing.
- Most workspaces were only utilised 40% to 60% of the time before the pandemic.
- Over the next five years, increasing numbers of people will work remotely, flexibly or hybrid.
