Do you solicit and attempt to meet your employees' workstyle preference? Specifically, can those who benefit from or require a quiet work environment get one? (This is not anti-collaboration; it is simply anti-noise and physical distraction.)
As an admittedly anecdotal perspective, the majority of the best developers I've worked with have expressed a strong desire for this -- even as and because we have struggled with cubification, shrinking cubes, and other management "best practices".
A side-product of this was finding/accessing them online in the evening, after they'd driven home, had dinner, and ensconced themselves to achieve some real focus.
