CHICAGO—Digitization, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT) and robotic process automation (RPA) are turning the world of work on its head—and the workplace is changing right along with it.
The workforce is taking different shapes, too, with on-demand labor working alongside fulltime employees. And as Baby Boomers retire, the war for talent has pushed workplace strategy to the forefront. Instead of just cutting costs, companies need workplaces that attract and retain talent, and inspire high performance.
To achieve their ambitions, companies need a multi-faceted approach to workplace and corporate real estate, says John Forrest, Global & Americas CEO, Corporate Solutions, JLL.
