Will the need for office space increase or decrease following the pandemic? This question has put specialists in opposite corners, with some of them believing that companies will reduce their office footprint and continue to operate remotely with large portions of their staff <\/a>. Others are convinced demand for space will increase because employees will want to get back to the office, so more space will be needed to align with social distancing guidelines. Who is right? Perhaps both. Or will it be a zero-sum game?<\/p>\n

With more than 30 years of experience in broad-based financial, accounting and SEC matters, Brodwin talks about the need to reimagine open spaces in offices, why select suburban markets are likely to be short- to mid-term winners and why high productivity while working from home might prove unsustainable in the long term.<\/p>\n

Tune in to learn more about Brodwin\u2019s predictions regarding adjustments that will be taking place in this sector over the next year or two!<\/p>\n
