04 Lead and commit your ecosystem with your workspace
Lead your ecosystem with a dynamic workspace
For consulting firms, being an influential force in shaping the future of businesses means going beyond merely providing services. It involves playing a pivotal role in sharing skills, knowledge, and expertise. This knowledge exchange is made possible through workspaces designed to foster collaboration and innovation. To achieve this, consulting firms must offer spaces like recording studios for producing educational content, plenary rooms for hosting conferences and debates, immersive rooms for interactive presentations, and large reception halls for high-level networking events. These work environments help build a dynamic ecosystem and reinforce the firm’s standing as thought leaders and innovators. Additionally, an attractive location paired with innovative workspaces allows consulting firms to compete in terms of hospitality and appeal with tech giants like GAFAM,who are said to have the «best offices in the world.» By offering a lobby experience on par with the GAFAM standard, consulting firms can position themselves alongside their tech partners while showcasing their own unique identity.
Investing in workspaces that promote knowledge sharing and accommodate various events not only supports a firm’s growth but also contributes to creating a collaborative and innovative ecosystem that benefits partners and clients alike. These spaces aren’t just for business—they can also be made available to associations to support awareness campaigns, mentoring, or corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. This approach generates triple-bottom-line value by delivering benefits for the company, the local community, and the environment. According to the NewGen Talent Centre, established by the French business school Edhec in 2013, young business and engineering graduates—who make up the primary recruitment pool for audit and consulting firms—seek working environments that combine professional development, attractive compensation, and a positive contribution to society. By supporting social and environmental causes, these workspaces address these evolving expectations, enhancing consulting firms’ appeal to tomorrow’s talent.
