\"Work<\/a>As a recent college graduate working in the graphic design field, shifting into professional atmospheres with regular hours and demanding deadlines was possibly the strangest and most difficult transition I\u2019ve made. With limited time and demanding clients, how do creative businesses host an environment suitable for artistic minds?<\/p>\n

Companies across the nation are starting to make compelling shifts in work values, understanding the impact of a work environment on employee performance, which trickles down to client satisfaction. A recent review on HubSpot looks further into the big ideas of new \u201copen\u201d business environments.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1.  An open culture where there is a free exchange of ideas, information and the ability to push lots of boundaries in the office space.<\/p>\n

2.  Recreating the workplace setting. Desk arrangements may rotate and employees are encouraged to move around and collaborate throughout the day.<\/p>\n

3.  Here at Prime, we enjoy offsite BBQs, happy hour and bowling as well as onsite pizza parties, birthday celebrations and omelet stations. Creating a fun and relaxed environment allows minds to escape work and flow freely.<\/p>\n

4.  Companies are introducing \u201cthemed\u201d meeting rooms and break rooms\u2013much like our cactus, palms, and aquarium rooms\u2013where employees can interact and collaborate with each other and with clients in a fun, relaxed environment.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The review\u2019s results found that workers have an easier time getting to know each other, providing a comfortable space for them to collaborate and express creativity. Employees appreciated the trust offered to them by company management and responded by doing their jobs exceptionally well.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re an employee or an employer, be mindful of your current work environment. Here are two ideas we keep in mind at Prime to build and maintain a workspace that supports productivity, creativity and employee morale.<\/p>\n
