ORLANDO—Last week, when CBRE unveiled its new office in Downtown Orlando's SunTrust Center, visitors noticed something peculiar: not a single assigned desk or office, not even for the local managing director. The 100% “free address” environment—where employees can choose a different desk on any given day—is one of the features of “Workplace360,” CBRE's workplace strategy initiative.

CBRE Orlando is among the first Workplace360 offices in the U.S—the firm's Los Angeles headquarters transitioned to Workplace360 last year—and one of about two dozen CBRE offices across the globe adopting the model this year. GlobeSt.com caught up with Orlando managing director Bill Moss to find out what inspired the change.
