There are many choices leaders can make to accelerate the transition. The places where people work shape their behaviors, and this can ultimately lead to a change in organizational culture. Workplace design can jumpstart innovation by creating spaces that help people experiment, take risks and learn as much from what doesn\u2019t work as what does. The newest Steelcase Learning and Innovation Center (LINC) recently opened in Munich, is a node on the company\u2019s global network and is part of a geographically distributed approach to innovation. An inspiring and high-performing space, the LINC is designed with an understanding of how learning, creativity and innovation interconnect and demonstrates how the habitats where people work can activate a culture shift by fostering a new set of habits.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_369426\" aria-labelledby=\"figcaption_attachment_369426\" class=\"wp-image wp-caption alignright\" style=\"width: 1024px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11238 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/steelcase-res.cloudinary.com\/image\/upload\/c_limit,dpr_auto,q_70,h_1024,w_1024\/v1516247156\/www.steelcase.com\/2018\/01\/18\/17-0088210.jpg\" alt=\"360 Magazine.

By bringing people together and supporting them in more collaborative and creative ways of working, the workplace can help an organization achieve a stronger sense of community and higher levels of agility and alignment.
