Not a manager myself, but we’re open plan – I like being able to slide a few meters on my wheely chair and arrive at my managers desk 😀
We’re actually changing offices soon, and going ‘agile’.
It’s certainly going to be an interesting change from what we have now – nearly everyone moving to laptops and docking stations, and same desks and equipment etc.
Our bosses have recorded that not everyone is in everyday, so we can cut down on the number of desks we need.
Our department is about 4 desks short. This means that if everybody does in fact turn up on the same day, then we’ll have to hotdesk into different departments.
It’ll be interesting, and I’m quite looking forward to it, even if it screws up everything 🙂
