MADISON, Wis.–CUNA has found new office space in its long-time home in Madison, Wis.
As CUToday.info reported here, since1980 CUNA has leased space from CUNA Mutual Group on the large campus on Madison’s west side in a building that mirrored that of the insurance company. But now CUNA Mutual plans to use the space after announcing it “is in the process of reimagining what its workplace of the future looks like, similar to many businesses across the nation. That likely includes fewer employees in-person on our campus, flexible ways to accommodate our employees and possibly a smaller overall footprint.”
CUNA said it now plans to lease space in Madison Yards, a 21-acre mixed use development that includes office space, medical space, retail, restaurants, a hotel and a Whole Foods. The development is less than three miles from CUNA’s current offices. The move is planned for the Spring of 2023.
“We are very excited about our upcoming move,” said CUNA EVP and COO Jill Tomalin. “Our lease was ending in December of 2022 and we extended it through the Spring to have the time and space to move into the new building. This is an opportunity to modernize our environment and work in a more efficient and effective way.”
That means a hybrid working environment, according to Tomalin, who said the extra time it has had to prepare for the move has allowed the trade group to “take a look at how we work.”
Full-Time Residents & Nomads
That has meant giving its Madison workforce different options, including being “full-time residents” in the new office space or working as a “nomad,” which is “someone who comes in periodically but doesn’t need a dedicated space.”
Tomalin said CUNA has been keeping an eye on how to maintain its “culture,” noting employees have said they are most effective when they opportunities to collaborate with others.
