What's Happened/Happening

We're very pleased that we have been invited by Realcomm to lead a pre-conference track at the Realcomm 2009 Summit Conference in Chicago next June. We'll have a more formal announcement shortly, but we urge you to put June 22-24 on your calendars and come join us on the 22nd for an in-depth look at the changing nature of work and its implications for workplace design and location strategies. Our track is tentatively titled "REboot, Rethink, Redesign: the Future of Work in an Age of Uncertainty." Hope to see you there.

We also continue to travel regularly on private business with individual clients. If we're in your area and have a few minutes, we'd love to see you for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or "refreshments" any time after 5 PM local time (you know what that means . . .).

Give us a shout or send us a note, and if we can squeeze out some time, we'd love to say hello and share some good ideas the old-fashioned way: face-to-face, glass in hand.

Here's what's on our calendars right now:

March 2009

It's going to be a busy month.

March 18 we will be delivering a presentation on the future of work at the Human Resources Leadership Program held semi-annually at Santa Clara University.
March 19 and 20 we'll be in San Francisco where McKesson is hosting the Spring 2009 meeting of the Workplace Innovation and Performance Network group (see the Executive Networks website for more information).
March 22-25 we'll be in Long Beach, California, working with a client.
March 31 through April 2 we'll be in Vancouver, British Columbia, for the IFMA Corporate Real Estate Council meeting at the 2009 IFMA Industries Forum. We'll be leading a session tentatively titled "Corporate Agility and the Future of Real Estate."

Longer Term

On April 28 at the CoreNet Global Summit in Dallas we'll be leading a panel discussion focused on a case study of an organization transitioning to a more distributed/flexible workforce – and realizing increased productivity, an ROI above 40%, and enhanced employee engagement. You really shouldn't miss this ground-breaking story.
June 22 we'll be in Chicago (at the Hyatt Regency) leading a special pre-conference track on the future of work at the RealComm Summit 2009 North America.
