Work Shop: The consumer-driven transformation of Commercial Real Estate

This is an easy and enjoyable read to quickly go from 0-to-100 on understanding the future of work. I especially like the chapter on Leadership in the Future of Work.The author's point about the archaic pre-pandemic metrics on "productivity" was especially powerful. Middle managers will have the biggest challenge in the Future of Work -- it won't be enough to use hierarchy as a forcing function to drive productivity. Distributed teams will need to get comfortable with pushing decision-making authority down to lower levels to create a culture of "learning through responsibility". I think that's a wise perspective on how the best teams will evolve, and it gives me hope for the way teams can reach high performance in the new hybrid / distributed world!

Joe's "Work Shop" is a breath of fresh air in the realm of real estate literature. Unlike typical books in this genre, Joe's blend of Behavioral Economics and Technology offers a unique perspective that's both enlightening and actionable. After just two days with the Kindle version, I felt compelled to add a physical copy to my collection. "Work Shop" is not just another book—it's a rare gem deserving of a permanent place on any bookshelf. Whether you're an investor or simply curious, don't miss out on this exceptional read.

The book provided readers with valuable perspectives on new commercial real estate trends.
