Employees overwhelmingly prefer hybrid work, but the optimal number of days in the office is still up for debate.
For other workers on a 5-day workweek schedule, that may mean 2 or 3 days in office each week.
"Our research shows it's the 'hybrid sweet spot,'" George says.
"You need to be intentional and anchor those office days around activities that are most effective in-person, whether it's career workshops, feedback sessions or team brainstorms."
The most successful return-to-office strategies have clear operating norms that go beyond how many days employees should be working together in person.
