the future is hybrid

We are only at the very beginning of this shift to a new way of working that redesigns workspaces for the opportunities, challenges, and tools of the information age. We expect we will see a lot more experimentation and iteration, especially at startups and tech companies driven by knowledge work.

In the near term, hybrid and remote work comes with more flexibility and more complexity, raising a second order of questions: How do you keep workers from burning out when the line between work and home is no longer physical, but digital? How do you communicate and collaborate with employees in different time zones? How does compensation and compliance change when employees are in different countries, not to mention different states? We’ll look at these questions and more in a future post on the operational complexity of remote work.
