Hyper-collaboration is here<\/a> and it\u2019s changing the game, putting teams under pressure to move faster than ever. Today\u2019s highest-performing teams are constantly collaborating, exchanging information and ideas in rapid cycles of iteration.<\/p>\n

To keep up with the increased pace, many teams are adopting an agile practice to structure their work. Agile is process-driven work derived from software development and now used by lots of industries to improve speed, flexibility and customer focus. Agile teams structure their work into a sequence of activities that guide them to execute quickly, monitor progress and re-adjust workflow, including daily stand-up meetings, sprint reviews and sprint retrospectives. Team members juggle team work with moments for individual focus and partner work.<\/p>\n

\u201cTeams need flexibility to change their day-to-day activities. Particularly, teams using an agile practice need to be able to change how they work over time. So, we thought about this through a new lens,\u201d says Bill Bennie, design director. By studying the diverse behaviors of different teams, Steelcase designers created the Steelcase Flex Collection, an interconnected system of moveable desks, tables, whiteboards and other pieces that can create dynamic team neighborhoods that allow teams and individuals to adapt spaces on demand.<\/p>\n
