Yes, this is the new normal, one of employee empowerment, that meets the needs of employers and employees perfectly.<\/p>\n<p>Companies are realizing that this hybrid workforce model is here to stay and that it can significantly boost employee productivity and satisfaction. According to a We Work <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wework.com\/ideas\/research-insights\/research-studies\/the-future-of-work-is-hybrid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">study<\/a>, a whopping 79% of managers say that they will allow their employees to divide their time between the office and remote working if their role calls for it.<\/p>\n<p>Supporting this study is Robert Half\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/1-in-3-remote-workers-may-quit-if-required-to-return-to-the-office-full-time-robert-half-survey-finds-301262727.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">research<\/a> which shows that nearly 49% of employees would prefer a hybrid work arrangement. With less time spent on commuting, employees believe they can utilize those hours on training, education and spending more time with family. Interestingly, up to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wework.com\/ideas\/research-insights\/research-studies\/the-future-of-work-is-hybrid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">64%<\/a> of employees will even gladly pay for access to an office space close to home if it means reducing commute.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, with numerous digital tools available at their disposal, companies have found it rather easy to adapt to this new model with astonishing speed. However, if leaders and managers are looking to make a <strong>hybrid workforce<\/strong> a permanent part of their working arrangement, they need to get it right. There needs to be a definite shift to designing a hybrid model that prioritizes individual requirements, and not just the company\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n<p>Done right, everyone can enjoy the benefits of the hybrid work model which has the potential to make life flexible, agile, productive and purposeful.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prohance.ai\/blog\/ultimate-guide-to-hybrid-work\/\"><strong>Hybrid Working Model is Here to Stay \u2013 Doing Hybrid Right!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here are five critical aspects of the hybrid model to consider before going all out:<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_81 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.prohance.ai\/blog\/essentials-of-a-successful-hybrid-work-model\/#1_Equip_the_hybrid_Workforce_With_the_Right_Tools\" >1.

Equip the hybrid Workforce With the Right Tools<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When everyone first began to work from home, organizations made do with whatever tools were available simply to get started. For long-term hybrid working to be effective and successful, organizations will need to provide specifically-built, ultra-portable devices with features, such as lightweight, long battery power, etc. designed to make it possible to shift between office, home or any other location with ease.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"create\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Create_a_Conducive_Office_Environment\"><\/span>2. Create a Conducive Office Environment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s not enough to hand out the right tools. Organizations must pay close attention to creating an office space where the dispersed workforce can create connections with each other quickly and securely. This will foster collaboration and reduce the possibility of silo thinking.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"facilitate\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Facilitate_Informal_Communication\"><\/span>3. Facilitate Informal Communication<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Not every discussion or meeting needs to be conducted through official channels and scheduled meetings. Sometimes people need to huddle quickly and have informal gatherings that are instrumental for better integration and collaboration. Companies need to ensure there are avenues, in practice and via technology, where these can be made possible.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"update\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Update_Corporate_Policy\"><\/span>4. Update Corporate Policy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Hybrid teams and fully-remote teams are not the same and therefore require corporate policies that address their needs correctly. Rules, such as where employees are allowed to work, the digital tools and equipment that they will be provided, the number of hours they must work, as well as some basic expectations, must be put in place for a smooth transition to the hybrid model of working.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"outsource\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Outsource_IT_and_Tech_to_an_External_Provider\"><\/span>5. Outsource IT and Tech to an External Provider<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The hybrid model will necessitate the use of multiple devices, both within and outside the organization. These devices need to be connected to each other. Instead of utilizing internal resources, engaging an external service provider early on can make IT management easier.<\/p>\n<p>The way we work has definitely changed and it is time to get on board the new normal. As companies transition to hybrid working, they\u2019ll have to keep in mind this is not a step back to earlier norms. It&#8217;s a new opportunity for organizations that can help them leverage the best of both worlds. It is important to note that there is no one-size-fits-all solution; and while some restructuring may be required, organizations could take time to find the perfect approach to maximize productivity and improve employee satisfaction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Table of contents Equip the hybrid Workforce With the Right Tools Create a Conducive Office Environment Facilitate Informal Communication Update Corporate Policy Outsource IT and Tech to an External Provider Today many companies find themselves comfortable with the idea of offering their employees flexible working arrangements.
