Innovation at the convergence of people, work and place

Choppy waters in a time of inflection
and transformation

Unprecedented structural changes to how, when and where we work are challenging behavioral norms. Adaptiv has the leadership and depth of expertise to steer clients through this turbulence.

Employees and companies are rewriting their playbook for how, when and where work gets done.



Commercial real estate stakeholders know they must reposition their assets, management and investment approaches in order to capture shifting demand

Product and service providers to this sector must evolve their value proposition and their offerings to remain relevant in the face of these changing needs

we belIEve

The primacy of "offiice" has shifted and operationalizing a hybrid and agile environment is mission critical while understanding the wants and needs of their people while protecting productivity, culture and retention.


Understanding the problems:

  • Retention  - Turnover of talent is a core attribute of a successful company.
  • Accountability  - Line of sight management companies have yet to define the tools and skills needed to manage a distrubted workforce

The Missing Framework: Why Current Workplace Solutions Fall Short of Understanding Work Evolution

By Jeffrey Langdon • May 29, 2025
As organizations navigate post-pandemic workplace transformation, billions of dollars are being invested in workplace technology solutions.

Organizations seeking to optimize their workplaces have discovered that neither physical sensors nor digital system data alone provides the complete picture needed for truly informed decision-making. Only by combining these complementary data sources can companies unlock the full potential of workplace intelligence.

The Evolution of Buy-side Commercial Real Estate Intermediaries: From Space Brokers to Strategic Partners
