Hybrid Workplaces: The Next Normal

As the pandemic winds down, many nonprofits, who had finally developed a pattern of normalcy under pandemic conditions, are now confronted with overhauling their workplaces once again. Returning to pre-pandemic work solutions, remaining virtual, or offering some hybrid version of the two models is a difficult decision that will impact the culture of the organization far into the future.

With more than 25% of the workforce planning to quit their jobs outright once the COVID-19 pandemic subsides and recruiting efforts ramp up (Maurer, Roy. “Turnover ˜Tsunami” Expected Once Pandemic Ends. SHRM (March 12, 2021)), organizations should ensure that their teams are engaged and operating within a healthy organizational culture, no matter what workplace modality they select.

Key Takeaways:

• Identify benefits and challenges of the hybrid workplace model.
• Define the elements of a healthy organizational culture.
• Develop supervision skills that facilitate structured change and engage the team members.
• Develop strategies to implement selected model with emphasis on team management and operational procedures.
