Activity Based Working
LEADem Consulting is the only Perth based consulting firm with extensive change management experience in Activity Based Working, having successfully transitioned two major organisations comprising of thousands of people to this new way of working.
Activity Based Working is a new style of working giving staff choice of work space best suited for the work they need to do.
This concept moves away from traditional static work stations to a variety of innovative work spaces designed to foster collaboration with enabling technology (ie. laptops and wireless connectivity) that will allow greater mobility and flexibility for staff, reduced real estate costs and increased productivity and retention.
Although technology is critical to enable such a working environment, successful implementation can only be achieved with strong change management and by obtaining support, buy-in and behaviour change by those impacted.
Activity Based Working requires substantial change to both the physical and habitual way that people work.
Investing in a change management process early on in the piece and ensuring it is championed by senior leaders and cascaded to all staff is critical to successfully preparing workers for a fundamentally different way of working.
