• Workplace matters have been on the agenda of most real estate
players, especially since the outbreak of Covid-19, but
methodological support to face related issues is still missing and
however not systematised in one accessible source of information
• The research methods outlined in this book will provide support
to the growing number of researchers in the transdisciplinary field
of workplace management
With current socio-economic development trends and changing work
landscapes, modern workplaces are progressively becoming a subject
of flexibilisation and hybridisation. Contemporary office
environments are commonly adapting to the needs of the flexible
labour markets by offering the non-territorial and rotation-based
practice of allocating desks to workers on dynamic schedules. This
book explores this growing trend by offering different perspectives
on the benefits and challenges of the flexible workplace phenomena.
Topics discussed range from defining and comparing flexible,
coworking and corpoworking spaces, policies made in local
environments, and the flexible working taxonomy.

The recent shift in labour markets has heightened the demand for
alternative work arrangements. Virtual reality (VR) technology
plays a significant role in this transition, with remote work as
efficient as work performed from an organization's own office
space. This book explores the impact of immersive VR technology on
the new virtual workspace. Specifically, it examines how VR can
enable employees to overcome the distractions associated with
working from home, increase their visibility on team projects,
build stronger relationships with co-workers, reduce feelings of
isolation due to social distancing, and facilitate their engagement
in collaborative work processes. It also explores the limitations
of two-dimensional, computer-mediated communication tools for
flexible working arrangements. It, thus, offers theoretical
foundations for future research on office digitalization and
subsequent applications of VR technology on office work. It also
features the analysis of two dozen problem-centered expert
interviews with creators and executives of leading productivity VR
tools that enable the remote collaboration between knowledge
workers.
