The Future of Work is Hybrid: Essentials for creating a fully hybrid workforce

The pandemic has led to a stabilisation of remote work and profoundly challenged long-held attitudes about how, when, and where work is done. As a result, many companies pivoted towards a hybrid approach to work.

Hybrid work supports a blend of ‘everywhere workplace’ for employees, offering them greater flexibility regardless of the location they choose to get their job done. Spurring this workplace evolution is the growing emphasis on human-centric work design1, supported by business agility, which enables companies to respond quickly and effectively to emerging threats and seize new market opportunities. This is an especially critical advantage in our increasingly competitive business landscape.

Geographically dispersed and distributed workforces are here to stay. And as employees get used to remote and flexible working possibilities, creating a hybrid workplace is more important than ever. Many organisations are accelerating their transformation initiatives to create a secure, everywhere, and anywhere workplace. In fact, research from Microsoft shows that 66% of businesses are already rethinking their office space and redesigning to meet the needs of a hybrid workplace and workforce¹.
