Company relocation: why it’s about more than just boxes (and everything it changes)
In this episode of the Sales Café podcast, Jana and I welcomed Marie Mošová from Schulke CZ&SK. They discussed what company relocation actually entails – and why it is much more than just a logistical operation.
In the podcast, they focused on:
Key aspects of company relocation – How to think about choosing a location, timing the entire process, and why it is important to plan a relocation as a comprehensive change, not just a move.
Relocation options and impacts in practice:
✔ How to choose a location that makes sense for both the company and its people
✔ How to realistically plan the relocation timeline
✔ How to design offices for both productivity and creativity
✔ How to manage the actual costs of relocation
✔ And why a change of space often triggers a change in company culture
And what is often the most underestimated part of relocation? Working with people. Communicating with the team, addressing employee concerns, involving people in the design of the space (offices vs. open space), and tailoring the work environment to their needs.
Practical information:
How long does the entire relocation process take?
How to communicate the change to employees so they embrace it?
And what determines whether a relocation will strengthen or weaken a company?
If your company is dealing with:
- Moving offices or changing locations
- Adjusting the work environment and ways of working
- Or a larger change that affects how people work
…this episode may be very practical for you.
When was the last time you experienced a change that started with a space – and ended with a change in culture? 👇
