Throughout the pandemic, the attitudes and relationship we have with the workplace has continued to evolve. Expectations of the demise of offices is now grossly misplaced while the emergence of a hub-and-spoke model has not panned out. Now, the rhetoric has shifted towards hybrid working – a large grey area that spans the spectrum between the extremes of office and remote work, which can be further complicated by cultural tendencies. For occupiers, it is a tug-of-war – between maintaining productivity and sustaining a corporate identity on one end and retaining and attracting talent at the other – the outcome of which will have massive implications for landlords and investors.
