“Flexibility is here to stay.” – Emily Botello

In this episode, Mary chats with Emily Botello from CBRE about how the legal industry is reinventing its office spaces. From single-size offices and neighborhoods of shared desks to seamless technology and thoughtful change management, Emily shares what’s working, what’s not, and how legal teams are adapting to a world where no two days look the same.

Topics:

  • Redefining the office with single-size standards and more collaborative designs
  • Setting “anchor” days and neighborhoods to encourage in-person connections
  • Ensuring plug-and-play tech and easy reservations to match the convenience of home setups
  • Involving everyone—partners, associates, and naysayers alike—in mapping the path to a better workspace
