Work environment redesign: Accelerating talent development and performance improvement
DU Press
In the face of increasing competition and declining return on assets, companies often turn to short-term, one-time initiatives that (temporarily) improve their bottom lines. While tactics such as cost-cutting may offer temporary relief, they don’t constitute a long-term strategy.

In the face of increasing competition and declining return on assets, companies often turn to short-term, one-time initiatives that (temporarily) improve their bottom lines. While tactics such as cost-cutting may offer temporary relief, they don’t constitute a long-term strategy. We studied more than 75 companies to determine the key strategic operations differentiator and determined that to address increasing performance pressure, companies need to tap into the only resource with unlimited potential—their talent. On-the-job learning and talent development provide an effective and sustainable way to accelerate performance improvement at individual, team, organization, and ecosystem levels.
Through our research of more than 75 companies varying in size, maturity, and industry, we have concluded that redesigning the work environment will be key to achieving sustainable business performance improvement in the future. We have a significant opportunity to apply design thinking and methodologies to the work environment, defined as the holistic integration of physical environment, virtual environment, and management systems. The work environment needs to be redesigned with three goals in mind to foster talent development and achieve performance improvement:
Goal 1—Define high-impact challenges: Help workers and teams to focus on areas of highest business impact, learning, and sustainable improvement
Goal 2—Strengthen high-impact connections: Enable workers to connect with people who matter, both inside and outside the organization
Goal 3—Amplify impact: Augment worker impact with the right infrastructureOther authorsSee publication
