Future Workplace track

The physical workplace is changing and in many cases dissolving into more and more distributed and remote work. This ads new requirements to the modern workplace where technology is becoming imperative when you wish to manage your team.

The Future Workplace conference track focused on how to do that effectively; balancing control and democracy in our day to day activities as well as our projects. Managing communication, information and KPI's in a way that fosters close and effective collaboration.

The conversation continues in our future workplace peer groups.

Track leader: Andrew Pope (UK) Innovation and Collaboration Expert
