Daymond John: Get Out of Your Office and Into the MixThe 'Shark Tank' star shares why it is so important to break down the office walls to open up the communication flow.

Throughout my career, I worked in a traditional workspace. My company had an office, and I had a private office inside it. But when I started seeing businessincubators-- with everyone at a company, from the top to the bottom, out in the open communicating andcollaborating-- I said, "Wow, that's a much better idea." When everyone's behind their closed doors, things are lost in translation. So about two years ago, I moved my staff into anopen floor plan, with me dead in the middle. Then this spring, I made an even larger change. I opened a co-working space for executives and larger corporations calledBlueprint + Co., and moved my staff into it. Now there are no boundaries between my team and others, including staff from Leesa, Ashley Stewart, The Honest Company and Shopify.
