Working in the same office all day long can sometimes wind up feeling a little stale for employees. While facilities might be okay, there’s nothing to get excited about.
That’s why so many brands are becoming fussier about where their people work. They want engaged staff who love what they do and commit to the company.
The following post looks at some of the ways relocating to a new office can liven up your team and get them to stay with you longer:
Improved Collaboration
Traditional offices were mainly set up for clerical work. Architects designed rooms where workers would sit in rows (similar to a factory production line) going through paperwork and filing records.
Of course, over the last twenty years, that model has exploded. It no longer exists. Instead, the main value of offices is their ability to get people to share ideas and collaborate on complex projects. Anyone can do admin on their laptop in their own time.
That’s where new office complexes shine. These understand the market and design spaces to ensure there are individual work zones as well as break-out spaces for sharing ideas and getting more stuff done.
More Talent Acquisition

Offering better offices can also enhance talent acquisition. Companies are better able to recruit the people they need to support their existing team.
Don’t underestimate the power of first impressions. If you can show high-performing individuals the type of office space you can offer, they are much more likely to choose you over your rivals.
What’s more, when they join your team, your people will benefit from their incisiveness and brilliance. You’ll have individuals team members can look up to and rely on to get stuff done.
Better Amenities
Another way moving to a new office space might reinvigorate your team is through improved amenities. Modern offices offer far more facilities than their conventional counterparts.
For example, the new office might have serviced video conferencing capabilities, allowing you to join with remote workers and adopt a more flexible hybrid working arrangement.
Offices could also have meditation areas for relaxation or games rooms to help staff relax more between long slogs at the computer. Just ask the property manager.
A Fresh Start

Fresh starts can be benefits in themselves, even if the office offers similar perks to your old one. Simply moving people can encourage them to look at you and your business through fresh eyes.
These days, brands like Evolve Relocation, make it straightforward to transfer to a new office. This added flexibility gives businesses more choices than ever before and means they don’t just have to put up with whatever they’ve been given.
Conclusion
Of course, there are challenges of moving offices, too, that you’ll need to consider. For example, changing location is expensive and some employees won’t like it. But overall, you should discover it’s a boon for collaboration. People are more likely to work with each other, the more facilities are on offer.
So, there you have it: some of the ways moving to new premises can help your team.
