Tenant Needs in a Post-Pandemic World with Christian Beaudoin, JLL Managing Director of Research and Strategy

In this episode, host Phil Coover is joined by JLL Managing Director of Research and Strategy Christian Beaudoin and Ice Miller partner Jay Augustyn. As we all know, COVID-19 has caused an abrupt shift in workplace operations, many of which may have a lasting impact on how we work. For example, as we return to the office, we can expect a hyper-focus on health, wellness and safety. Post COVID-19, tenants and landlords will be looking for space designs that offer greater privacy and separation from others, as well as opportunities to collaborate and concentrate. We can expect flexible work schedules and locations, and our workplaces will need to accommodate these flexible needs. The amenities we expect from our workplaces will be different in a post COVID-19 world. <figure class=" sqs-block-image-figure intrinsic " > Christian Beaudoin is a Director of Research and Strategy for JLL in the Americas.
