Our report highlights the importance of adapting office spaces to accommodate these changing dynamics. It explores the rise of hybrid working, as evidenced by JLL’s biennial global Future of Work survey results, where two-thirds of corporate real estate decision makers agree that the office will remain central to their organisation’s work ecosystem. The focus is clearly shifting from a functional workspace to collaborative hub that fosters culture, social connections, and employee well-being.

This is manifested through themes such as sustainability and green building practices that are gaining traction in African markets, driven by the increasing awareness of the environmental impact of the built environment and additional ESG factors.
