Hybrid Work on the Horizon?
During a recent workshop, I asked participants "What are three words that come to mind when you think of returning to in-person collaboration?" Here were the results:

When you read this infographic, do these thoughts align with your personal transition back to the office? With your team's transition?
In my "Leading Teams Through Change" workshop, I encourage teams to share their thoughts on hybrid work out loud with each other. Creating opportunities to share what's exciting (and worrisome) about a change helps build more resilient and empathetic teams by exposing colleagues to each other's shared emotions and experiences.
