Long Live The Corporate Office

In 2021, we will continue to witness the emergence of the blended office lifestyle.  But then again, let’s not forget the corporate trappings of being a person of influence and status outside the four walls of your customized home office.  Remember having huge “monoliths of offices to be driven to, where one can sit in imposing chairs at large desks in corner offices on top floors sipping lattes and talking loudly into flashy headsets?”(That’s according to Forbes.) The luxury of a corporate office is still king.

“Privilege and power create the luxury of choice – the choice to work from home, for example – but offices are the fortresses of corporate influence.”  For more corporate office insights, visit Forbes.

The Future Of Residential Real Estate

The Future Of Residential Real Estate: A House In The Suburbs

The love affair we have with real estate is far reaching and endless. It’s the foundation of our most spectacular dreams. In fact, according to Forbes, “…buildings are not constructed other than to serve people. We want shelter where we live. We need and want goods and services that are produced or delivered in buildings. We work somewhere—often inside a building—to buy those goods and services. And we get pleasure or satisfaction from certain activities that take place in buildings, ranging from churches to bowling allies. And at least some of us like to see, or at least know of, great monuments, temples and tombs. So a look at the future of real estate is simply a look at how people will live, work, shop, and enjoy life.”  For more information about this article, visit Forbes

Automation Is The Future Of Warehousing

Automation Is The Future Of Warehousing

According to Forbes, “Warehouse automation is expected to become an increasingly desirable option to the manual alternative over the next few years. But that doesn’t directly indicate a high likelihood of investment in these technologies. However, when asked about the likelihood of warehouse automation investment over the next three years, 60 percent of respondents indicated it was “very likely” while an additional 19 percent considered it “likely” (the remainder chose “somewhat likely” or “not at all likely”). So broad-based investment activity is expected as well. The next logical question is “Why is warehouse automation being viewed in such a positive light?” Our findings indicate that changes in the operating environment; such as labor costs, labor shortages, and increased throughput requirements; are the primary influential factors. Meanwhile, our findings also suggest that advancements in automation, such as lower costs and scalability improvements, are supporting factors.”  For the full article, visit Forbes.
