Every manager knows that the success of the company depends not only on the results of the team as a whole, but also on the development of individual employees. In the new year, it is worth focusing on setting professional and personal goals for each team member, because the implementation of these resolutions can significantly affect their well-being, motivation and efficiency at work. But how to do it effectively? And what can help meet these challenges? Start with the right tools — regular conversations, time management support, and creating a space that supports concentration, creativity, and relaxation.
By setting individual goals for employees, you give them a clear direction and a sense that their development matters. Employees who see that their needs are taken into account are more engaged and motivated.
Studies show that the implementation of personal and professional resolutions:
Effective time management starts with setting priorities. Research shows that the most important tasks are best done in the morning, when concentration and energy are at their highest. However, for this to be possible, employees must have a space that allows them to fully focus on work, free from unnecessary distractions.
Intimate offices are conducive to such organization — they offer peace and quiet, giving employees the opportunity to fully engage in their duties. A well-designed office space should also take into account the different needs of the team: from individual workstations to places where tasks can be carried out in a group.
Regular breaks at work are not only an opportunity to rest, but also a way to increase efficiency. A moment for a walk, exercise or mindfulness training can work wonders — reducing stress levels, improving mood and stimulating creativity.
The space around the workplace also matters. A courtyard that combines greenery with artistic murals can be the perfect place to regenerate. This space favors moments of silence, but also inspires by providing new visual stimuli.
You can also not forget about the interior spaces — relaxation areas where employees can take a break from the monitor for a while, drink coffee and talk in a less formal atmosphere. Such moments can become an opportunity to build relationships in the team, which have a huge impact on cooperation and morale.
Creativity is one of the most important components of success in teamwork. An inspiring environment can significantly support her. Natural light, the presence of greenery and elements of art in the office have a positive effect on the well-being of employees and their ability to think creatively. Therefore, when choosing a place where your team will work, it is so important to prepare office space for rent for the individual needs of each company. That is why full flexibility in interior design is so important, especially among employees from Generation Z or Millennials who are so aware of their needs.
A sense of belonging is just as important as good working conditions. It is they that most often allow you to keep valuable employees in the ranks of the company's team. Therefore, it is also important to have a meeting place and integration of teams during events and internal workshops. This makes people feel that they are part of a community that creates something special, unique. The intimate atmosphere of our Łódź office building combined with specially designed spaces (with the needs of our tenants in mind) gives the opportunity to calm down and gather thoughts, which is crucial for effective problem solving.
1. Intimate spaces conducive to concentration
In Stara Drukarnia you will find offices designed to promote focus and efficiency. Silence, tranquility and the ability to adapt the space to the style of work of the team make any task easier to perform. The intimate atmosphere helps to avoid the problems that often arise in large open spaces — such as noise and lack of privacy.
2. A courtyard full of inspiration and opportunities for rest
Our yard, decorated with murals by such artists as Andrey Berger and Michał Janczyło, is not only a usable space, but also a place for regeneration and relaxation. The courtyard also serves as an integration center — it hosts Christmas meetings, charity events or events that support a healthy lifestyle or safety (e.g. self-defense workshops or bicycle service), which build relationships between teams and increase the sense of belonging. Art decorates the walls of Stara Drukarnia with magnificent murals on staircases by Maciej Walczak and Aleksandra Ignasiak, which give the interiors of the office building a special character and, together with temporary exhibitions, positively influence the work and well-being of the teams of companies renting office spaces in Stara Drukarnia.

3. Lobby full of art and space to relax
Our lobby, filled with greenery and artistic details, is the perfect place to relax. You can, talk to the band or just recharge your energy in the environment of art. It is a space that affects the well-being and promotes the integration of employees, and in the evenings it can be transformed into a space where vernissages and other artistic events are organized.
4. Internal integration events
Stara Drukarnia is more than an office — it is a community. We organize events that allow tenants and their teams to get to know each other better and build relationships. Integration meetings, such as vernissages or workshops, develop the interests of our tenants. Our administration team likes to be close to tenants. We listen to their needs, suggestions and often come up with interesting initiatives ourselves. That is why in our Łódź office building workshops have already been held: for coffee fans, very important first aid trainings, extremely interesting and giving a sense of agency self-defense classes and many, many others, all with people in mind. It is they who create a unique climate. A good atmosphere at work is the most frequently cited argument by employees that causes them not to be interested in changing jobs. Creating such an atmosphere so that employees do not want to leave for other teams, even under the pretext of greater earnings, is a gigantic success of any company.
For a manager, office space is more than just a workplace. It is a tool that supports the achievement of team goals and individual development of employees.
Stara Drukarnia provides spaces that combine modernity with an intimate atmosphere, inspire action and support the success of teams.
