And thanks to you, TIME remains the world's leading newsweekly, with more...
...plan offices. More companies, like Ogilvy & Mather in Los Angeles, now boast that not even their CEO has a door. Some have backtracked a little and provide sequestered spaces for the few, cubicles for the many. But most open-plan proponents still deride walls as barriers to the creative teamwork demanded by a high-speed economy...
