ESDC Workplace & You - How will we support you?

How We Support You?

Real Property leads the ESDC Workplace initiative to modernize our workspaces and optimize them for Activity-Based Working. The CFOB National Change Management Team supports and assists employees transitioning to an ESDC Workplace and this new way of working together.

To this end, the CFOB National Change Management Team works to establish a Change Management Committee¹, Change Ambassadors² (CA) and/or a Change Agent Network³ (CAN) at each ESDC Workplace project site. National Change Management then supports this group with communications, training and engagement materials to assist everyone in making a smooth transition.
