The workplace is something that most people look at as either in-person or remote, without much variation or room for both. However, a hybrid option aims to provide the benefits of a remote environment with those of an in-person one. Employees might spend a certain amount of time in the office and the rest of the time working remotely. You can look at a hybrid workplace as something of a compromise; it gives employees more freedom to work remotely when they need to while also promoting an in-person workplace environment for when it matters most.
Let’s say you want to implement a hybrid workplace, as you find the benefits to be something your employees might enjoy. You can make sure that your hybrid workplace is designed effectively by designing it in a way that favors remote work. Simply put, if it can be done remotely, it can be done in the office. The opposite cannot be said, therefore it makes sense to prioritize remote operations. This approach also helps those who work in-house by giving them more options, one of which is to work in the office without restriction.
It also helps to ensure that your in-house operations can accommodate any number of in-house workers. One way businesses do this is through a desk reservation system, where employees can book a desk or workspace for when they plan on working in-house. To accommodate this request, it also helps to make sure that your employees have the technology and access they need to effectively do their jobs, be it in-house or remote, including laptops, smartphones, software, data access, or otherwise. As long as these conditions are met, your employees should be able to transition from remote to in-house as needed.
When it comes to the hybrid workplace, you can bet that technology plays an important role in making it happen. Thankfully, you have technology professionals like Decatur Computers Inc. whom you can rely on to ensure you don’t fall short in this important aspect of running your business.

Or, in other words, are your digital transformation efforts rubbing your team members the wrong way? Let’s discuss.
Here’s the thing: piling on new technologies and expecting your employees to keep up is only going to burden them and put undue pressure on them.
It really only makes sense, when you think about it. For all the benefits that new, modern business technology offers, suddenly springing it on your team members can have a few detriments, including:
…none of which are good, of course. This gets even worse if the technology you adopt makes them feel as though they are no longer of value to your team. Things like automation—which literally does the jobs that once took up a lot of your team members’ time—could be perceived as a direct threat to their employment, only alienating them further.
However, it doesn’t have to be this way.
When implemented properly, modern IT can greatly improve your team’s satisfaction—even in the case of automation. It all depends on how you introduce it into the workflow, and what purpose it serves.
For instance, rather than automating the tasks that your employees see as their primary work responsibilities, it makes more sense to remove the rote tasks from their day that keep them from their more skill-based responsibilities. Not only will this help to boost productivity, but the fact that their skills are being engaged will help them feel more loyal and increase their retention.
It is important that any consideration of adding automation into a process should involve a few critical questions, like what pain points the automated process could alleviate and what the return on your investment into automation can be expected to be.
