Designing a workplace that yields results is in fact a
science. Dr Libby Sander is Assistant Professor of
Organisational Behaviour at Bond University, where she researches
the impact that our workplaces have on our lives across,
neuroscience, architecture, psychology, entrepreneurship and urban
design.
As a follower of Libby's work, I was intrigued to understand
the link between a well designed and considered space and the
comfort and performance levels of individuals. In this
episode we discuss the effects that our environments have on our
ability to concentrate, communicate and perform and how the
aesthetic beauty of the space we occupy can also subliminally
affect our preferences.
You'll learn about how our brains react to our physical
environments and why it is so important to consider our
environments holistically, including lighting, air, noise, colours,
materials and amenities. Libby shares with us her framework
for defining our best work environments, as well as how our unique
personalities impact on our personal preferences for spaces and why
a one size fits all approach doesn't work.
