Allsteel, a leader in workplace solutions, has released its latest episode of “Tell Me More,” the company’s monthly podcast series exploring the ever-evolving intersection of design and functionality in the workspace.
Hosted by Taylor Morgan, senior workplace advisory manager at HNI Workplace Furnishings, season three, episode ten, “Redefining Mentorship in the Modern Workplace ft. Tamar Ribnick,” includes expert insights from Tamar Ribnick, principal at HGA Architects and Engineers. This episode illustrates the criticality of mentorship within today’s workplace, a topic Ribnick has thoroughly researched as a member of HGA’s workplace group. She highlights the efficacy of organic mentorship, rather than formal mentorship programs, and how designing spaces that foster such guidance is essential. Citing both in-person and hybrid clients as examples, Ribnick attests to the importance of designing comfortable and accessible communal spaces for employees across all levels and departments. This approach is centered around incorporating elements such as natural daylight and a variety of seating that drive people in, encouraging socialization and mutual learning. Ribnick emphasizes that people are the most important assets at any company; therefore, designing spaces that initiate moments of learning by osmosis has a long-term impact on employee engagement, retention and overall company growth.
Throughout the season, industry leaders—including designers, manufacturers, researchers, and other workplace experts—will share insights on the latest innovations, challenges, and trends shaping workplace design.
Listeners can tune in every month for the rest of “Tell Me More” season three, available on both Apple Podcast and Spotify.
