3 things to consider when building a hybrid work strategy

Employees should be given a reason to come to the office, which will make those moments of collaboration more beneficial and effective, Braden says. “You have to define why you want someone physically there, so consider the office space that you have, and set it up in a way that’s going to drive impact. Present it as an employee experience moment,” she says.

“We all kind of figured out how to do remote work,” Braden says. “But what is our plan for operating together — and apart? It’s not necessarily about a hybrid policy that says: you must be in the office three out of five days. It’s about picking the right times to be in the office and defining that time. Come in to collaborate, don’t just come in to do your normal work.”
