The Why Podcast: Why does the office still matter?
In this episode of The Why, host Katie Pisa welcomes Bukky
Akinsanmi Oyedeji, Assistant Professor of Strategy and Entrepreneurship at London Business School, to unpack why physical work environments still hold power in a hybrid world.
Drawing on her research ‘Physical Work Environments: An
Integrative Review and Agenda for Future Research’, Bukky explores how office design affects not only employee health and productivity but also a firm’s ability to attract talent, retain resources, and signal legitimacy.
From standing desks and soundproof booths to the open-plan
layouts, this episode investigates the workplace as more than just a container for people – it is a canvas for strategy, culture, and performance.
If you’ve ever wondered whether the office is still worth the rent, this one’s for you.
