Hybrid working went from niche to normal in a matter of days. It was probably the fastest change to our working behaviour we’ve ever seen. This unprecedented event has led to a shift in priorities – not just for individuals, but for organisations too.

For many businesses, the remote working experiment has been a success. Nine out of ten organisations will continue to combine remote and onsite working in the future (McKinsey). But, what should you be considering next?

As an IT manager, it’s essential that you have a robust hybrid working strategy to mitigate and manage any temporary fixes already in place, and evolve them as part of your long-term plan.

To be successful, consider a hybrid working strategy that will help to:

  • Equip employees with the tools they need to work productively.
  • Empower employees with the knowledge they need to work to the best of their ability.
  • Ensure that IT systems are scalable and future-proof.
  • Avoid over-spending on software, and devices.
  • Optimise the cloud environment for value and performance.
  • Maximise the organisation’s security profile.

If you’re an IT manager or key decision maker in your organisation, take a look at this step-by-step to navigating your way through the hybrid working jungle.
