Article Abstract:
The workplace will be more technologically-advanced in the 21st century. As companies focus more on teamwork, more shared work space will be created.

Work will generally be home-based resulting in more company-established work-at-home policies and programs. Pen-based computers will likewise be increasingly available and clerical work will be computer-aided. Office buildings are also expected to have state-of-the-art facilities.
