When the lease on Northwestern Mutual’s Los Angeles office expired in early 2017, the firm’s leadership saw an opportunity to transform the way it did business. The existing workplace’s technology was outdated, its health and wellness amenities anemic, and its layout a throwback to the days of cubicles and corner offices. To continue to hire—and retain—the best and the brightest in their industry, the company needed to evolve. So, the financial services company partnered with CBRE.
CBRE provides a range of solutions from sales to leasing to facilities management, it serves a vast array of clients across the globe, including 90 of the Fortune 100 companies.
One of CBRE’s specialties is helping companies use their physical space to drive productivity and manage the proliferating demands on the modern office.
CBRE’s Workplace practice, established in 2008 and comprised of more than 40 professionals across the Americas, is focused on creating, implementing, and sustaining workplace strategies that improve employee engagement and create real and measurable organizational value.
