2022 SEGDVoices - New Challenges for Hybrid Work

 

There are many ways to approach hybrid work which creates significant complexity when it comes to choosing a hybrid model. What works for one organization, may not work for another based on how they are able to balance a variety of business factors. There is not one clear best hybrid model for every organization, but Steelcase researchers did see several consistent approaches emerge.

Most organizations are implementing two or three days in the office and two or three days remote. While the number of days is defined at the company level, decisions around which days people will come into the office are being made by department or regional leaders who are in a better position to understand their teams’ work and when they need to be together. The consistent insight among talent and human resource experts is that offering flexibility should not be totally open-ended. It helps employees to have some structure to let them know when other people are most likely to be in the office, so they can make connections and collaborate.

“These are complex challenges requiring leaders to meet varied criteria while considering multiple stakeholders in the context of a volatile, uncertain and complex environment.” - Mark Mortensen
