CASE: The Place Makes the People: Gerson Lehrman Group is
invested in “activity-based working.” In this system, employees
have access to cubicle spaces for privacy, conference rooms for
group meetings, café seating for working with a laptop, and full
open-office environments. Where you work on a particular day is
entirely up to you. The goal is to encourage free-flowing
conversation and discussion, enhance creativity, and minimize
hierarchy—in other words, to foster a creative and collaborative
culture and remove office space from its status position. Research
on open offices, however, shows there is a downside. Open offices
decrease the sense of privacy, reduce the feeling of owning your
own space, and create a distracting level of background
stimulation. Whether a traditional, open, or activity-based design
is best overall is obviously hard to say. Perhaps the better
question is, which type will be appropriate for each
organization?

Questions:

a. How might different types of office design influence employee
social interaction, collaboration, and creativity? Should these be
encouraged even in organizations without an innovative
culture?
b. Can the effects of a new office design be assessed
objectively? How could you go about measuring whether new office
designs are improving the organizational culture?
c. What types of jobs do you think might benefit most from the
various forms of office design described above? ( This is one
question with parts so answer the whole thing no plazerism
