Welcome back to The Collaboration Space! In this episode, we'll discuss the effects of the return to work debate that's heating up and what it means to you and your teams.

We've seen mandates in the news, including the latest from Amazon, who is targeting January 2025 for a mandatory 5 days in the office schedule. But it's likely that around the globe, hybrid rules will still apply, too, since employees don't want to give up that flexibility. 

So it's time to ask, "What does your workspace look like? When was the last time they've been updated? Now is the time to earn the commute with immersive experiences in the office with modern technology.

Cara Shannon and Joel Mulpeter from Crestron are joining our discussion today.

Watch the video podcast to explore insights from AVI-SPL and Crestron panelists, including:

• How do we create high-impact spaces that really encourage us all to go back to the office and yet still help us connect to our remote teammates?
• Types of high-impact spaces: ideal for in-person experiences in larger spaces
• How Crestron Sightline delivers an inclusive experience for hybrid team members and supports multiple core platforms in the room

We're hearing a lot about how employers want people back in the office 2-3 days a week or more while employees enjoy the flexibility of working remotely. And they've proven that that productivity increases rather than suffers. So, the hybrid workplace is here to stay.

That leads us to today's discussion. With this push-pull between team members and employers, how do we create an inviting workplace that makes people want to return to the office?

Kristin Spiewak from Sharp NEC Display Solutions joined the podcast to share her insights with us.

Kristin and host Nancy Lussier discuss:
- What have we been hearing from customers about the current state of the return to office?
- We want to create a more inviting workplace. Is this a good time to look at a display tech refresh?
- Where can we leverage displays and digital signage throughout the office to engage employees, such as lobbies, conference rooms, and more?
- How do we create a seamless display experience that encourages people to come to the office and delivers meeting equity?
