A hybrid working environment is here to stay. To meet the changing needs of employees and customers, organisations are rethinking their operating models, their use of technology and even the design of their physical office spaces. But hybrid work isn’t just about finding the right digital tools and workspaces. Organisations need to carefully consider the nuances of a blended work environment.

As organisations undergo the necessary transformation, a key theme that has emerged is how to ensure authentic collaboration. Much has been written on the importance of culture to ensure a successful digital transformation. But what is less understood are the potential long-term impacts of a fragmented, hybrid ecosystem on an organisation’s culture and sense of community.

So, how do you create and maintain a sense of community in a hybrid world?

This question is especially relevant to how digital transformation programs are designed and delivered, if they are to scale sustainably and inclusively.

In this panel discussion hosted by UST’s ANZ Managing Director, Matthew McCormack, special guests will discuss the latest research, trends and global examples to offer insights into the complexities and nuances of hybrid work.
