How the corporate community affects the well-being and productivity of workers

The evolution of smart working goes hand in hand with the growth of corporate spaces that promote dialogue and aggregation among employees.
The most advanced companies that are attentive to economic and social transformations invest in their employees, helping them to improve not only their psychophysical well-being but also their degree of job satisfaction. The adoption of increasingly evolved models of smart working is going in this direction, and with it the growth and development of real corporate communities: spaces designed to encourage dialogue and aggregation of employees, regardless of their role or level of seniority.
In communities, people meet, discuss and exchange information. A strong sense develops of belonging to a group with which not only time and production tools are shared, but also objectives that go far beyond personal interests.
But that’s not all. In communities, valuable free suggestions often arise. The approval of colleagues, “bosses” and simple “collaborators” can be tested for a certain idea or novelty. Criticisms, guidelines and general trends can be collected to improve products and services or modify processes and flows. In short, business can be developed and the level of general productivity increased.
Not surprisingly, where the community works, the company itself is also considered and perceived as a community, with effects that can bring huge improvements. So much so that the company’s result is perceived as a common good and the community is a social glue that binds people for a greater good.
There is no lack of examples of established and functioning communities, even in Italy. Talent Garden, Spaces, Copernico and Impact Hub are just a few successful cases that have created business communities based on two main and integrated factors: the use of technological innovation and communication together with the development of smart working.
The availability of innovative spaces adapted to new working needs, of dynamic environments that facilitate collaboration and the exchange of ideas and experiences, of workplaces that improve the well-being of those who occupy them for hours and hours every day are all elements that allow greater development and integration of the community.
If cultivated and stimulated, therefore, the community produces satisfied workers, who interact strongly with the company, and therefore become highly productive.
