"A thoughtful, practical read about the future of the flexible office."--Adam Grant

"Office shock" is an abrupt, unsettling change in where, when, how, and even why we work. In this visionary book, three prominent futurists argue that the office is both a place and a process--offices and officing--with a new range of choices, including what they call the emerging officeverse.

To see the possibilities with fresh eyes, we must use future-back thinking to ask, What is the purpose of your officing? What are the outcomes--especially regarding climate--you want to achieve? With whom do you want to office? How will you augment your intelligence? Where and when will you office? How will you create an agile office?

Traditional offices were often unfair, uncomfortable, uncreative, and unproductive. This book explores how to seize this great opportunity to transform office work.
