How do you manage hybrid work?

<ul>
<li>Practice a culture of documentation. Keep critical discussions visible and tied to the related projects or goals for context.</li>
<li>Keep documents publicly accessible where possible so you can minimize the need to ask each other where to find information. Accessibility is easy to manage in Qatalog. For example, if you add any Google Drive file as a resource within a Project, Team, or Goal, collaborators will get automatic access.</li>
<li>As work hours may be different across the org, default to asynchronous communication.</li>
<li>Use your time at the office for meetings. Resort to online, sync meetings only as and when necessary.&nbsp;</li>
<li>If you do need to schedule a virtual meeting, make sure there's a clear agenda going in and actionable items coming out.</li>
</ul>

How do you make hybrid work effective? 

Setting a similar schedule throughout the week prevents work from bleeding into other parts of people&rsquo;s lives, and stops the feeling of always being at work&mdash;something which contributes to burnout risks.
A comfortable workspace is crucial. Staff working from their bed or a lounge room coffee table will result in poor posture and an achy body at the end of the workday. Remote workers need to have a properly-positioned desk somewhere with natural light, and ideally, this should be away from other distractions in the home. This isn't possible for everyone, so be sensitive to people&rsquo;s personal situations.
And in terms of getting work done in a remote setting, people need to set realistic and achievable goals each day as their to-do list. This helps maintain focus and keeps people on track. Maintaining regular breaks is essential. Getting up and away from the desk for lunchtime is also very important when working from home, even just taking a short break for some fresh air before continuing with the day.

What is best practice when working from home? 

Yes, the future of work is hybrid&mdash;a mixture of remote and in-person. And work is also increasingly asynchronous. As we move towards extra flexibility with work, more and more people will determine their core working hours along with their place of work. Hybrid work models are already used by <a href="https://qatalog.com/blog/post/remote-and-hybrid-work-statistics-2021/">63% of high-growth companies</a>. Other studies show that by 2025 at least 70% of workers will fulfill their roles remotely for at least part of their working month.
One of the drivers behind the hybrid work model is the increase in productivity that companies and their employees experience. Fewer distractions and more flexibility to manage life tasks results in better employee engagement and happiness. Happy workers are more productive in their roles.
Hybrid challenges in communication, <a href="https://qatalog.com/blog/category/collaboration/">collaboration</a>, and connecting our work with the work of others are already being addressed with the help of technology. Tools like Qatalog are enabling managers within businesses large and small to change their focus from where and when work gets done to how it gets done.&nbsp;

Is the future of work hybrid? 

Regardless of location, work software needs to support each team member with a central shared space. This digital space should enable asynchronous communication that&rsquo;s supported by a single source of truth. Great software needs to connect people working on projects, help them focus on goals, and give greater transparency to company information so everyone knows what&rsquo;s going on without spending hours hunting down hidden details.
The right software provides a structure for distributed teams, integrates with all the tools people need, and paves the way for a culture of documentation to facilitate collaboration across time and place. Ultimately, teams become able to spend more time working on what they love and less time figuring out how to collaborate and connect their work with others.
