The advantages of the hybrid work model
By: Prageeth Wanigasuriya
I prefer hybrid. Hybrid work indeed strikes a balance between the flexibility of remote work and the collaborative benefits of on-site interactions. It caters to diverse preferences and needs, allowing employees to enjoy the autonomy of working from home while still fostering a sense of belonging and team unity through periodic office visits. But this model may not be universally applicable to almost all organisations (healthcare etc)
