The rise of 'standing desk envy'


Sit-to-stand desks appear to be rising in popularity in the workplace. As Lindsay Gellman with the Wall Street Journal writes, "As companies get wise to the ways standing or sit-to-stand setups can raise their game, employees who didn’t opt in at first – or who aren’t eligible for the perk – are suffering from serious 'desk envy.'”

Keith Lindor, dean of the College of Health Solutions, is featured in this article about "standing desk envy" and discusses how he and his staff made standing desks an option for faculty and staff moving into a new floor of the Nursing & Health Innovation building on the Downtown Phoenix campus.
