Everyone is working hybrid these days, so you might think it must be a successful model for any business. But is it?

Here at deskbird, we believe that the simple introduction of a flexible work model does not equal its success. Quite the opposite: bad implementation of the hybrid work model leads to worse performance and unhappier employees. At the same time, successful hybrid work models can generate up to a day of productivity per week for each employee, increase happiness, and foster talent retention. But how?

As the world of work continues to evolve with the times, we are seeing more tech companies becoming increasingly flexible in the way they organize work in their offices. This allows these organizations to attract the best talent by casting a global net for prospective employees and providing flexible benefits. In the past 3 years, we have seen companies around the world opt for a mix of remote and in-office work, allowing employees to choose when and where they want to work.

This flexible way of working has already been adopted by some of the world's biggest tech companies, who are pioneering the hybrid work model and exemplifying its success. In this paper, we will explore the current state of hybrid work, the different models being adopted, and how companies around the world are responding to the ever-changing working model.
