During this episode my guest today is Libby Sander, a leading thinker on understanding the future of work and how we can re-imagine work to live more meaningful and creative lives.
We discuss how physical work environments affect cognitive, emotional, and relational reactions, highlighting the importance of focus and concentration for knowledge workers. We discuss how open-plan offices could hinder productivity due to noise distractions and mention the positive impact of a sense of beauty in workplaces on mood and creativity.
