Office Shock is abrupt, unsettling change in where, when, how, and even why we work. Bob Johansen, best-selling author and futurist argues that the office is both a place and a process – offices and officing – with a new range of choices, including what he calls the emerging “officeverse.”
He uses the clarity of futureback thinking and fifty years of historic patterns to consider the purpose of officing, the achievable outcomes, and how to capitalize on this unique opportunity.
Based on the results of a two-year study, Office Shock is abrupt change in where, when, how and even why we work. While many focus on “the Great Resignation or “Quiet Quitting,” Bob talks about “The Great Opportunity” to imagine how we work and improve how we work and how we live. A look future back from ten years ahead shows us a clearer view of the choices and helps us answer the question, “Why do we work in offices at all? There are good reasons to work in offices, but this should be a question asked—not an assumption made.
