Was Hybrid The Wrong Approach To Delivering Workplace Flexibility?
Despite the growth of hybrid workplace policies, many organizations struggle to make them work. A broader, more multi-faceted approach to workplace flexibility can help.
Challenges of Hybrid Work
Many organizations experience disappointment with hybrid workplace policies. Common challenges include employees commuting to half-empty offices, disjointed team dynamics, and a lack of effective communication. While hybrid work can be beneficial, it requires a commitment to new practices and tools to enhance collaboration and connection among team members.
According to a survey by Future Forum, 93% of desk-based workers prioritize schedule flexibility over location flexibility, which is desired by 81% of respondents. This indicates that employees value having control over their calendars to manage their work-life balance effectively.
Rethinking Workplace Flexibility
Organizations can adopt a broader approach to workplace flexibility by hiring empathetic managers, allowing employees to control their calendars, implementing policies to prevent after-hours work, and creating special shifts for working parents. By exploring these options, companies can better meet the diverse needs of their employees and improve overall satisfaction.
