Ill. We have no offices and a very open floor plan to foster communication.
Desks are out in the open, and visitors don t know where the company head sits.
The other advantage is to de-emphasize hierarchy. I sit in the sales and marketing team, and my assistant sits next to me. We say that if you go into our facilities and you know where the chief s office is, it s too hierarchical. There are no reserved spaces in the parking lot, either. From that, Jones says, many things follow.
