As the end of the COVID-19 pandemic nears, companies around the globe are rethinking what the workplace will look like in a post-pandemic world. After a year of working from home that proved more remote work doesn\u2019t mean less productivity, most employees want more freedom to choose where and when they work, even after the pandemic<\/a>. To meet the increased demand for more workplace flexibility, forward-thinking companies are embracing a future where hybrid workplaces<\/a> are common and the days of employees being tied to their desks are a thing of the past<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a hybrid workplace model, employees decide where they spend their time in a constellation of workspaces. These workspaces can include central offices, smaller satellite offices, co-working spaces like WeWork, third spaces like coffee shops, or their homes. While every hybrid model will look different depending on a company\u2019s specific needs, the overarching idea is the same: the future of the workplace is flexible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

WeWork recently brought together four experts in corporate property to discuss how companies are setting up the offices of tomorrow, at this year\u2019s first-ever WeWork Innovation Summit<\/a>. <\/em>Moderator Tom Osmond, chief operating officer of human resources at WeWork, was joined by leaders at CBRE, Cushman & Wakefield, Willis Towers Watson, and Okta. Watch the panel on demand here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The panel discussed the benefits of hybrid workplace models as well as their common challenges, and how flexibility is a solution to the uncertainty of the modern workplace. Here are some of the highlights from the discussion. <\/p>\n\n\n
