Flexible work isn’t changing, but how organizations create and manage it is. What started as a necessity during the pandemic has become a normal, sometimes challenging, practice. And in recent months, organizations have noted its mixed outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some research showed that flexibility \u2014 particularly remote work \u2014 was exacting a cost on company culture, collaboration and employee wellbeing. Some research even suggested it could lead to lower productivity and stagnate careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
