Although workplace design and management are gaining more and more attention from modern organisations, workplace research is still very fragmented and spread across multiple disciplines in academia. There are several books on the market related to workplaces, Facility Management (FM) and Corporate Real Estate Management (CREM) disciplines, but few open up a theoretical and practical discussion across multiple theories from different disciplines. Therefore, workplace researchers are not aware of all the angles from which workplace management and effects of workplace design on employees has been or could be studied. A lot of knowledge is lost between disciplines, and sadly many insights do not reach workplace managers in practice. Therefore, this new book series is started by associate professor Rianne Appel-Meulenbroek (Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands) and postdoc researcher Vitalija Danivska (Aalto University, Finland) as editors, published by Routledge. It is titled Transdisciplinary Workplace Research & Management because it bundles important research insights from different disciplinary fields and shows its relevance for both academic workplace research and workplace management in practice. The books address the complexity of the transdisciplinary angle necessary to solve ongoing workplace related issues in practice, such as knowledge worker productivity, office use and more strategic management. In addition, the editors work towards further collaboration and integration of the necessary disciplines for further development of the workplace field in research and in practice. A relevant book series to collect for workplace experts both in academia and industry.This second book in the series focuses on the role of workplace management in the organisation and the tasks that workplace management needs to consider. The 18 theories that are presented in this book and applied in workplace research discuss management aspects from organisations perspective or dive deeper into issues related to people and/or building management. They all emphasize that workplace management is a complex matter that requires more strategic attention in order to add value to various stakeholders. The final chapter of the book describes a first step towards integrating presented theories into an interdisciplinary framework for developing a grand workplace management theory.
