What is your companies’ return to office strategy? We look at global trends.

 

More than half of full-time workers will have a hybrid work arrangement, according to a new survey by The Conference Board.

Having experienced high(er) productivity, 43% workers have doubts about the need to return to the workplace at all. Back in January, only 31% felt that way.

 

Younger workers are those most consistently questioning the wisdom of returning to physical offices:

Millennial: 55%

Gen X: 45%

Baby Boomer: 36%

 

Stress/burnout is the top well-being concern among workers, particularly among women, millennials, and individual contributors. CEOs, men, and baby boomers were the largest cohorts to have no concerns about returning to the workplace.

 

As companies are preparing for the hybrid model, different approaches are emerging for return-to-office strategies:

FEATURED TEAMRADERIE EXPERIENCE

 

Whether your team is fully-distributed or gradually returning to the office, Teamraderie experiences can help you strengthen connection — and are accessible by both colleagues working from offices and colleagues working from home . Consider engaging your team with the Tartine Bakery & French Press Coffee/Tea Experience as you are evolving your work model.

 

Virtual Team Building with Tartine Bakery

 

Each of your team members receives their own kit with a YAMA French press, Coffee Manufactory coffee or Tea Forte tea, and baked items from famed Tartine Bakery — including a lemon poppy seed cake, ten (10) chocolate chip cookies, and three (3) Valrhona chocolate brownies. While tasting these breakfast items or treats, you will learn how to make coffee or tea on a French press — and why many aficionados prefer this method. Tartine — cited as “America’s most influential bakery” by Bon Appetit — has created an integrated sustainability-focused supply chain and its products have a distinct taste, due to heartier grains and more nutrient-rich flours. Taste, learn — and bond!
