With the combination of LSM’s extensive property solutions experience, and One Consulting’s digital transformation expertise, this partnership is set to provide complimentary services to address the challenge every organisation is currently facing; what the post-COVID world of work looks like.
Stephen Repton, managing director at One Consulting, said: “The COVID-19 pandemic has made predicting the future of business all the more difficult.
“We are really excited about this collaboration and are looking forward to working together with organisations and business leaders to address the current challenges of staging the return to work, leveraging new technologies and new ways of working that were utilised during the pandemic, and charting a new path for the future.”
Laurence Poultney BSc (Hons) MRICS, managing director of LSM, said: “We’re delighted to be entering into this partnership.
“I believe we’re looking at a prolonged period of hybrid working, where employees work from home and from the office in different proportions Together, LSM and One Consulting are the best people to ensure our clients have the complete solution to sustain this new way of working.
“We’re delighted to have been awarded our first contract together and know that this will be the first of many.”
One Consulting and LSM will be working together, using data and employee insight to recommend property strategies, technologies, smarter working solutions and integrated services.
New working arrangements will be complimented by bespoke flexible working spaces.
Repton said: “It’s going to be really important that employee well-being is front and centre.
“We bring a fresh perspective on how you can give people the tools they need and the right balance of support to keep them human in a technology driven world to create a more effective working methodology.”
The partnership predicts that the net result of this all-encompassing approach will be in the improved use of digital, more efficient working practices, a strengthened business continuity response, and a much-improved workforce experience which will bring out the best in individuals and teams.
Poultney said: “We can’t predict what the future holds, but we can encourage and assist our clients to be prepared for best and worst case scenarios, helping them to think about changes to their business and operating models that will ensure resilience in an ever changing world.
“We can’t stop future crises, but if we focus on dynamic stability, we can carve out a presence that will allow us to move with the storm.”
