Hybrid team
What is a hybrid team?
A hybrid team is a team whose members work partly in the office and partly remotely. On any given day some people are together in person and others join from home or elsewhere, so the team has to plan when it meets and how remote colleagues are included.
What makes hybrid teams work
- Agreed office days for in-person collaboration
- Meetings designed so remote participants can take part fully
- Visibility of who is in the office on which day
Common challenges
Hybrid teams often find that people come in on different days and end up on video calls from the office. Planning office days together, and booking desks near each other, makes in-person time count.
How AskCody supports hybrid teams
With AskCody desk booking, people see where colleagues will sit and book desks near them. Rooms for hybrid meetings are booked from Outlook, with catering and equipment added to the same booking.
Frequently asked questions
How is a hybrid team different from a distributed team?
A distributed team works from different locations and may never share an office. A hybrid team shares an office but uses it part of the time.
How many office days should a hybrid team have?
There is no single answer. Many teams agree on one to three shared days a week.
