According to this study, hybrid work is especially effective when workers enjoy flexibility but do not feel isolated from the rest of the company's colleagues, so it is vital that companies find the optimal balance between working from home and working in the office.
This report also shows that most organizations are okay with only a quarter of the working day being done from home, which shows that there is a dissonance between what companies want and what the people who work there want.
To prepare the Harvard Business School report, more than 30,000 emails were examined, and it was concluded that the number of emails in the hybrid work group was lower, and in addition, it was also shown that they received more positive ratings from their immediate superiors than in other groups.
This study also shows that intermediate hybrid work formulas translate into both greater innovation by the workforce and improved communication.
A good conclusion is that the key to getting the most out of hybrid work is to organize everything so that those who are part of the same team go to the office on the same days of the week, to strengthen the feeling of "team" and to avoid wasting time in virtual meetings.
All this is also evident in another study by Vyopta, from which it is extracted that many bosses continue to be suspicious of this work formula, and believe that their employees' productivity is potentially lacking if they work from home.
