This chapter is excerpted from 'At Home With Work'. Remote and hybrid work environments have boomed in number; however, understanding on how to manage remote and hybrid work is still in its infancy. We need better guidance on the impact of remote working on behavior, organizational culture, and well-being, so that remote-working models are optimized for success. At Home With Work provides this understanding and guidance.

It shows how what started as an emergency response to COVID became the biggest global change to working arrangements in living memory and shifted our expectations about work itself. The author investigates how remote and hybrid work have moved the dynamic away from ego-driven office culture and toward higher trust and collaborative working.
