WORKPLACE STRATEGY.

ENVISIONING AND SHAPING THE FUTURE OF YOUR WORKPLACE.

Your workplace is more than an office; it’s the environment where culture, collaboration and productivity come together. At Spectrum Workplace, our Workplace Strategy service helps you make informed, future-focused decisions about how your teams work, where they work best, and what your space needs to deliver.

Rather than relying on assumptions or trends, we use data, insights and engagement with your people to create a clear strategy. This ensures your workplace supports performance today and adapts to the future, whether that means hybrid working, relocation, or rethinking the role of the office altogether.

WHY WORKPLACE STRATEGY MATTERS.

The workplace is changing faster than ever. Without a strategy, businesses risk wasted space, rising costs and disengaged employees. A strong Workplace Strategy provides:

  • Clarity - Uncovering what works well, and what doesn’t, in your current space.
  • Confidence - Ensuring the right office size, layout and design for your needs.
  • Future readiness - Supporting flexible and hybrid working styles.
  • Cultural alignment - Creating environments that reflect your values and engage people.

OUR WORKPLACE STRATEGY PROCESS

Every organisation is different, but our strategy process typically includes three key stages:

1. VISIONING

We start with a clean slate. Through workshops, interviews and stakeholder surveys, we define your aspirations and establish a clear vision for your future workplace and working style.

2. DISCOVERY

Next, we analyse how your space is currently used. This includes space utilisation studies, storage requirements, working styles, technology adoption and employee feedback. We benchmark your existing workplace to provide a measurable baseline.

3. STRATEGY

Finally, we bring together insights from the Visioning and Discovery stages. We analyse and interpret the data, then present a clear Workplace Strategy that covers everything from design and layout to technology, wellbeing and change management.

The key output is a comprehensive design brief, providing a solid foundation for your future workplace decisions.

CASE STUDIES: WORKPLACE STRATEGY IN ACTION

Gen II Fund Services - We developed a workplace strategy that supported their expansion into a larger, more flexible London office.

Enhanced Care Services - Our strategy process uncovered opportunities to create a more agile workspace, balancing collaboration with privacy.

Royale Life - Through workshops and analysis, we created a workplace plan that reflected their brand identity and growth ambitions.

HYBRID WORKING & BEYOND

One of the most common outputs of Workplace Strategy today is guidance around hybrid working. We help organisations determine the right balance between office and remote work, ensuring that the workplace remains a destination that adds value.

For example, Oxford University Press partnered with Spectrum Workplace to transform its HR department into a flexible, agile environment that fully supported hybrid working.
