The fine line between being watched and gathering data in the office to improve the use of space. Communication – do employees know why they’re being monitored? https://qz.com/1002705/herman-miller-creator-of-the-aeron-chair-wants-to-make-your-desk-more-like-a-fitbit/ http://www.independent.co.uk/news/barclays-bank-sensors-a7901566.html (3) VR in the workplace, coming soon? http://www.dogheadsimulations.com/doghead-blog/2017/9/4/how-to-apply-vr-collaboration-to-your-business (4) Flash Organisations, the future of work?
