Summary

A radical new proposal for creating community and purpose in the post-pandemic workplace from one of the foremost thinkers in business and organisations.

As remote working becomes the norm rather than the exception for many office workers around the globe, The Nowhere Office proposes a radical new way of thinking about work both now and in the future. Offering a strategic and practical guide to negotiating this pivotal moment in the history of work, The Nowhere Office addresses the problems which beset work - the endemic stagnant productivity and crisis of stress which predate the pandemic - and the new challenges of remote working, repurposing offices for more creative interaction, managing WFH teams and satisfying the demand for more purposeful work with greater work/life balance. Drawing on history, cutting-edge research and extensive interviews Julia Hobsbawm argues persuasively that now is the time to develop something better, more meaningful and, crucially, more workable.

Brilliant

Well researched and written. A timely response to a post pandemic world. It will be interesting where we are in 10 years time. I am not alone in my thinking that flexible and hybrid working improves productivity.

Crashingly dull

Still trying to work out who this book is for. A whole book telling us some people like WFH and some don’t.

Great for nodding off to.
