To create more human connectivity between offices across the organization, selected employees “swap” offices during a workweek. The intent is to gain a better understanding and appreciation of the workings of other offices, to build new and existing relationships, to learn different ways of doing things that might benefit individuals or an office, to improve understanding of projects, skills and service offerings across the company, and to create new opportunities for sharing resources, mind sharing and selling work. At the completion of the program, each individual delivers a presentation to staff in their home office on their experience and an idea that they learned that could be implemented to improve their office. This program is offered on a rotating basis to offices across the organization.
