How to Design Equitable Conference Rooms for the Hybrid Workplace How to Design Equitable Conference Rooms for the Hybrid Workplace

How can we reconfigure conference rooms to create a balanced experience for in-person and remote participants?

Once, in the not-too-distant past, office workers all had the same meeting experiences.

Then the coronavirus pandemic triggered a massive paradigm shift in how and where we work, ushering in a new era of remote workforces and digital workspaces. In the post-pandemic workplace, hybrid meetings with in-person and remote participants are the new norm, and now meeting experiences aren’t the same for everyone. 

Now, the goal of modern conference room design isn’t equality, where employees have the same meeting experiences, but equity, where employees have fair meeting experiences. Simply put: how can we make the hybrid meeting experience good for everyone?

CONFERENCE ROOMS ARE OUT, HUDDLE SPACES ARE IN... HERE’S WHY.

A lot has changed in the workplace since the days your grandpa or dad put on a tie, suit coat and hat and headed out the door to the office day after day. Every day is casual Friday and employees are just as likely to work from a coffee shop as a desk. And there are other, more significant changes that go deeper than the surface. The way people actually do their work—and want to do their work—has evolved as well. To get the most creativity, innovation, and productivity out of your workforce, you have to create an environment and corporate culture that matches employees’ preferences and expectations. Many companies have discovered that huddle rooms are the key to letting employees work how they want, which in turn means companies get what they want out of their employees.

While most huddle rooms include some standard components—a display, a camera, a microphone, a control system, as well as collaboration software and network access—the quality of those components can make or break your huddle room. And their cost can make or break your budget.
