What Occupiers Want 2025
Shaping the CRE Agenda
In partnership with CoreNet Global, Cushman & Wakefield presents the 2025 edition of What Occupiers Want—our biennial global survey that captures key priorities and perspectives into the shifting dynamics of decision-making, investment, workplace trends and portfolio strategies of occupiers worldwide.
Amid lingering uncertainty and a heightened focus on cost, this year’s report explores how leading organizations are redefining value in corporate real estate. From aligning with the C-suite to quantifying workplace impact, occupiers are seeking new frameworks that balance financial rigor with a people-first approach.
Why it Matters
Occupiers today do more than manage space—they create environments that drive culture, engagement, experience, performance and long-term business value. This report, based on survey findings, offers a global, cross-functional perspective on how the workplace must adapt to support both people and business objectives.
