What makes the perfect workspace varies from person to person, but a new online tool from flexible office space broker [Workthere](https://www.workthere.com/) is set to help everyone find out how they work and the environment they are most productive in. By answering a series of questions on how they communicate, their workplace frustrations and motivations, along with the structure of their working day, users of Workthere’s new tool are able to discover the type of working environment that’s right for their individual needs, and how this should improve their productivity. The working personalities covered in the tool include: - **Trailblazers** – People who thrive on flexibility and require space to collaborate or retreat as needed, and come and go as they please. - **Collaborators** – Workers who perform best in an open work environment where they can bounce ideas and derive energy from others. - **Traditionalists** – People suited to a private office that allows them a stable and quiet place to work logically and systematically. - **Best of Both Worlds** – Workers who require a quiet space to get their heads down but still [perform strongly](https://www.financedigest.com/strong-performance-of-investec-lowes-structured-product-maturities.html "Strong performance of Investec / Lowes structured product maturities") as team members when given the opportunity to collaborate.

However, we have recently seen individual workers become increasingly aware of their [personal productivity](https://www.financedigest.com/demand-from-personal-care-and-cosmetic-products-will-boost-vegan-wax-market-sales.html "Demand From Personal Care And Cosmetic Products Will Boost Vegan Wax Market Sales") and how they can make the most of the hours spent at work. The [rise of flexible working in particular has placed more emphasis on the importance](https://www.financedigest.com/biden-bans-russia-oil-imports-to-u-s-warns-u-s-gasoline-prices-will-rise-further.html "Biden bans Russia oil imports to U.S., warns U.S. gasoline prices will rise further") of staff productivity. “Each person works differently and its vital [businesses or individuals have a workplace that can meet these needs; from the quiet, private office required for a ‘Traditionalist’ worker personality to thrive, to the open plan working environment needed for ‘Collaborators’ within the workforce.”](https://www.financedigest.com/no-collateral-no-problem-here-is-what-you-need-to-know-to-secure-a-business-loan.html "No Collateral, No Problem: Here is What You Need to Know to Secure a Business Loan") Responses from the What [Workers Want research, released by Savills and Workthere earlier this year, show many workers in flexible workspace – including serviced offices and co-working spaces – face](https://www.financedigest.com/factbox-what-european-companies-are-doing-as-workers-face-high-inflation.html "Factbox-What European companies are doing as workers face high inflation") frustrations with the standard of their workspace.
