Market research company OnePoll surveyed 2,000 workers who use collaboration tools like Slack-as well as legacy office tools like email-to confirm how their communication styles have evolved since the move to remote and/or hybrid work.

✅ Companies the ability to work more asynchronously and more efficiently across time zonesĮmployees are also creating their own communication styles that fit a dynamic, digital work landscape. ✅ Executives the chance to hire diverse, qualified talent found outside their former geographic hubs ✅ A modern, more flexible work-life balance with employees being able to work from new places And with less than 30% of global knowledge workers working from the office every day, according to a Future Forum Pulse survey late last year, employees are demonstrating a clear desire to permanently adopt a hybrid work model. We’ve all had to adapt, with many companies implementing a remote or hybrid work model that replaces physical office spaces with a digital headquarters. Not just in terms of where we physically work but also in how we work and communicate with one another.

There’s no question that the way we work has changed dramatically since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. How many Zoom happy hours have you joined since 2020? Is your daily walk around the block the best part of your day? Does it grate on you when someone says “You’re muted!” or “Can you confirm receipt?” Have you joined your office’s dog group?
