Hello PM community,
I am responsible for redevelopment existing 4 office buildings by covering them with a roof using ETFE film and steel structure (currently the zone is not covered and rarely used by users), on the ground floor under the roofing we intend to create 4 different zones all year round, such as a central reception area replacing the 4 existing reception desks in each building, the second zone will be a relaxation zone, the third zone will be a cowork zone, and the last zone is a kitchenette for preparing one's own meals, on the ground floor next to the kitchenette in the office building we intend to prepare a food court that will increase the choice of meals for employees of the office complex.
The problem I have now is I have to convince the board members to cover a few million euros, usually in the case of office project expansions you can estimate the new rental space and the profit from it by which the board's decision is easy to obtain, but in this project, the space will not be rented, it will be used for free by all the office complex users and the surrounding residents of the residential development, so I was wondering if maybe there are some studies on improving happiness / health / increasing office occupancy etc. that will help me show hard data that may not directly reflect into ROI, while it will improve quality for employees and surrounding residents, which may reflect into a better perception of the office complex.
Perhaps you know of such studies or have an idea of what I can use to convince management of this project. Saving Changes...

You could do an internal employee satisfaction survey and show the board the results. This is one way to deal with it using a data that is specific to your company employees. Saving Changes...
