CIBC is betting that its “hospitality inspired approach” for designing its CIBC SQUARE office will help attract talent and encourage employees to come into the office.
In an interview with BNN Bloomberg, Claudette Knight, vice-president of workplace design and experience at CIBC, said it was important for them to create a flexible workplace for employees returning to the office, after years of workflow changes amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
“People got used to the flexibility of working from home so the fact that we took a real hospitality inspired approach to design this [CIBC SQUARE] space, I think is really helpful for us,” Knight said.
“So when employees come to the office, there’s a real range of work settings that they can access depending on the activity.”
