COVID-19 Recovery: Re-imagining workplaces and workplace strategy

 

Presented by Deb Donley and Megan Spinos from Vocon.  They will discuss how we can't predict the future but we can prepare for it, a back-to-business playbook for retrofitting the office to a healthy and safe workplace, and how we will return to work a changed culture. We are in a perpetual pressing of the refresh button.  

We would like to thank AIA Trust, Victor and CNA for sponsoring this event! Sponsored by Victor, the CNA Insurance Companies, and the AIA Trust, providers of the AIA Trust Professional Liability Insurance Program. 

Learning Objectives:

  • Attendees will examine how we must suddenly look to the future and envision space with a lens that is both microscopic and telescopic, and recognize everyday shifts.
  • Attendees will explore landlord strategic priorities, and positioning the office building for business ready occupancy.
  • Attendees will identify the strategic programming approaches to rethink office design by creating healthy and safe work environments for employees. 
  • Attendees will evaluate working productivity and technologies, related to project and service costs.

  • Space is limited, so please RSVP early!

Cost: Free

Debbie is highly collaborative and believes passionately that Principal involvement throughout the life cycle of a project is key to building long term partnerships with clients. She measures success on the relationships that the firm builds with clients long after a project has been completed.
