Remember Jacob Rees-Mogg, Brexit opportunities and government efficiency minister, lurking round Whitehall offices to leave sarcastic printed cards on any empty desk: Sorry you were out when I visited. I look forward to seeing you in the office very soon. With every good wish? The following year his government ordered the entire civil service to attend the office a minimum of 60% of the time.
The office that works today may not suit in a few months with more staff or changing routines. Choosing flexible options that meet current needs and allow for future growth takes smart planning and awareness of both short-term priorities and longer-term goals.
