Strategy for Hybrid & Distributed Work Models Playbook
- Executive
- Intermediate
- Template Included
A framework for evaluating hybrid and distributed work models against genuine strategic criteria — talent access, collaboration needs, real estate strategy, culture — rather than treating it as a settled policy question decided once without ongoing strategic reassessment.
Isn't work model mostly a policy and culture decision, not a
strategic one? It has real strategic implications — talent market access, real estate cost and strategy, collaboration and innovation dynamics, and organizational culture all connect to broader business strategy in ways that make this a genuine strategic decision, not purely an HR policy question.
Should work model policy be uniform across the whole organization?
Not necessarily — this playbook explicitly considers whether different functions or roles have different genuine collaboration needs that warrant different work model approaches, rather than assuming uniformity is always right.
