PowerSchool

Building culture in a distributed environment

Challenge

PowerSchool wanted to consolidateoffice space for cost efficiency while preserving in-person connection,mentorship, and team culture — especially for distributed employees.

‍

Solution

They created "Power Pods"using Upflex’sglobal workspace network, allowing teams to meet face-to-face where and when itmade sense — no mandated schedules, no fixed office costs.

‍

“With our offices, whether that's our headquarters or our Upflex sites, we want employees to be getting something that they can't get from just sitting at their desk at home. Upflex makes that possible.” – Meghan Brooker, People Analytics Lead at PowerSchool

Proof in results

  • Boosted engagement through intentional, flexible in-person connections
  • Created cross-functional mentorship via local “Power Buddies”
  • Increased productivity and employee satisfaction
  • Eliminated wasted space with offices on demand
  • Recognized by leadership as a scalable, people-first hybrid model
““Because of the expansive Upflex network, anywhere we have a substantial employee population, we know we can set up a PowerPod. So it's really the sky's the limit thanks to Upflex.” –Meghan Brooker, People Analytics Lead at PowerSchool

‍

“Upflex has allowed me to connect with colleagues cross-functionally, and I would encourage anyone to [explore] the huge benefits of using Upflex.” –Christy Lesko Sr. Director, Product Marketing at PowerSchool
