When the LinkedIn network features around a thousand managers who describe themselves as ‘Chief Happiness Officer’, you can tell that well-being has moved right up the workplace agenda. That’s only right and proper, of course, from a moral point of view. But it also makes sense from a business perspective – happy and comfortable workers  tend to be more productive. And the benefits of creating a connected workplace where people can collaborate and get on with their jobs easily go even further than that. As workplace strategist Joelle Jach said recently: “By understanding the connection between humans and their environment, and by providing an environment that supports human needs, organisations can target cost savings as well as an engaged workforce.” He argues that  comfort and wellbeing  also have a direct impact on employee retention; we all want to work somewhere that’s nice to be. However, Jach also warns that open-office environments can cause feelings...

An interview with industry expert Luis De Souza –  download  the podcast version Delivering a perfect meeting can play a huge role in clinching the deal – but if the VC won’t connect or the time changes at the last minute, closing the sale becomes hard work. Luis De Souza, CEO of NFS Technology Group, says there are  4 critical questions  everyone should ask when it comes to technology and space planning/management: How can I organise the perfect meeting ? How do we avoid bad behaviours, which can cause poor utilisation and wasted technology spend? What factors should I consider when planning my new meeting space or re-design? How can integrated technology provide better tools so my FM and CIO can improve space utilisation and the user experience? Luis set up NFS just over 20 years ago as a hospitality business selling into the hotel and restaurant sector, and it’s also now a leader in  meeting room software  for corporate and conference ce...

Are our UK venues missing a trick when it comes to digital transformation? A new survey of UK venues has proved surprisingly revealing. The survey – by London launch and sponsored by NFS and revealed this week – was aimed at discovering how venues are currently using technology. It gives software experts like ourselves a deeper insight into what the industry really needs, because many venues say their current system and tools for venue management are just not fulfilling their needs. In today’s challenging trading climate, this is a concern. This is a booming and profitable industry – but to stay that way, it needs and deserves more flexible and responsive technology. British consumers are becoming increasingly digital-savvy, and expect to access every area of their lives via their mobile. Hotels cottoned onto this some time ago, and online booking is now the norm, offering potential customers 24/7 convenience. Hotels often use a single property management system to c...

What have you booked online in the last few months? A show? Rail tickets? A hotel room? Like nearly everyone else, you’ve probably done at least one of these things. But are you offering potential clients the chance to book space at your venue the same way? New independent research – sponsored by NFS – suggests that you probably are not. In a poll of VIP venue representatives, just under half admitted they are not progressing with digital transformation. What’s more, 53% said their business is not ready for the transition to more online customer experience. As leading providers of venue management software, we know venues are complex businesses that can’t directly be compared to hotels. But is it possible that venues are missing a trick to boost their business with technology? Let’s face it, for the average British consumer, online booking has become the norm – and mobile use is growing. Earlier this year, it was reported that a third of people had  used mobile...
