It may, however, be utilized to make your staff and visitors feel more welcome, involved, and educated. ONES all-in-one smart office system helps you to prepare for a hybrid working environment via digital displays.

Lobby Signage

When visiting a firm or needing to find a room at a site you seldom frequent, it might be difficult to navigate a large workplace.

Lobby is one of the locations you know people will cross. Use your digital displays as floor plan displays for the most important information to welcome your guests, such as the floor plan of your office, today’s upcoming bookings reserved in the room booking/desk booking system via Outlook or ONES, and announcements.

Visitor Registration

Visitor registration will be an important element of returning to the office. Creating an agile experience for your guests and staff will be a critical component of this plan.

While the visitor check-in procedure isn’t new, if you’re looking for a contactless or touch-free approach, utilizing current digital signs with ONES to describe the automatic check-in process will be critical.

Use your digital screen as a self-check-in kiosk to assist people in following the procedure step by step. This can expedite the process and help you achieve your aim of limiting face-to-face encounters while we all adjust to the new hybrid working model in the workplace.

Conference Rooms and Meeting Spaces

To keep workers and visitors safe while meeting in person, additional measures will be required. Use digital displays in your meeting rooms to instruct staff on how to use the area and help them to know if the room is occupied.

Show how many people may safely occupy the room at the same time, and instruct participants on how to enter and depart the room. You can also show what equipment users can use in the room.

ONES support various high-end display by Crestron, IAdea, and Qbic for room display, desk display, floor display, and self-check-in kiosk. Contact us: hello@ones.software, or visit ONES Software official website for more information: https://ones.software/.

LinkedIn suggests the first step is to improve boring meeting rooms. So, LinkedIn’s new flagship building in Mountain View, Calif. meeting rooms feature comfortable furniture and cutting-edge technology, and it was created by the architectural firm NBBJ, to make their office more flexible. 

What you should know

• The first requirement to improve the meeting room atmosphere is to meet the needs of your staff;
• Flexibility is very important for newly designed meeting rooms;

New design for LinkedIn’s meeting rooms  

LinkedIn believes that bringing flexibility into the meeting space will make people’s work more enjoyable. If they are happier at work, the boring atmosphere would naturally go away. Therefore, compared with traditional meeting rooms, the newly designed meeting rooms with a greater focus on employees’ needs and well-being. 

The new conference rooms feature movable partitions to expand or reduce meeting space at any time and provide additional sterilization equipment to protect the health of employees.  

LinkedIn added open conference spaces amid the desks of engineers on the same teams. If they want to have a discussion with others, workers can pop into one of these spaces and close the sliding doors — or leave them open. Also, providing some soundproof equipment in these areas ensures workers can focus on work.  

Some conference room management systems can provide a very flexible free room combination function. Colleagues can change the size and equipment of the conference room according to the needs of the meeting, so as to add more vitality to the work.

“The intention is for it (newly designed meeting room) to be hyperflexible…Acoustical baffling on the ceiling dampens sound, and its zigzag shape adds more dynamism to the room, enlivening what is normally a flat, static plane,” said Robert Norwood, a principal at NBBJ. 

Relax atmosphere encourages employees to speak more 

LinkedIn uses a modernist oak table from Anthropologie to replace a central table in conference spaces that look more like lounges.  Also, each has a squishy sofa with throw pillows, and plants and books abound.  

“The relaxed look is intended to help meeting participants feel comfortable and encourage members of the staff “who might not speak up in a traditional setting,” Lisa Britz, LinkedIn’s director of workplace design said. 

Virtual meeting tools add interest to meetings 

Adding virtual tools to the meeting room can connect remote workers to work together with office-fully workers and provide more energy in meetings. There have some large horizontal screens in meeting rooms on LinkedIn, allowing for sharing documents on one side and showing the faces of remote colleagues on the other.  

Additionally, some companies’ conference rooms are also equipped with a digital whiteboard and a special camera mounted on an opposite wall that “ghosts out” the person writing so colleagues working at home can see what’s being written in real-time. It makes the meetings or presentations look funnier. 

The real estate services firm, CBRE has conducted a survey of companies occupying office space recently. It found that 76 percent of respondents considered enhanced videoconferencing one of the top priorities in their return to the office. 

Need an office management system to control flexible equipment 

As mentioned above, providing flexible working equipment in the meeting room can improve the condition of work in the meeting. However, you need to be aware that to manage these devices you need a well-developed office management system.  

A well-developed office management system allows you to reserve the required meeting room and ensure that your meeting is not disturbed while it is in progress.
