More people are returning to offices this spring, whether on a hybrid or part-time basis. We’re not used to working together in person. How can some of their tips and techniques guide the return-to-office movement?

In the past two years, professionals have been through the wringer. They’ve experienced a rollercoaster pandemic, political polarization, social unrest and upheaval, economic confusion and the allure of the Great Resignation. And now, many organizations are calling people to assemble back at the workplace. How will they show up together? What conversations will they have? And, what will it be like when people return after two years having changed so much and having experienced a form of isolation.

As much as our social landscape has shifted, so have they as individuals. Despite connecting virtually, the people we engage with daily might appear foreign to us. This reunion will undoubtedly bring a new self to relationships, which may come with attitudinal shifts in work ethics, opinions and even deeply held values.

Now is an opportunity to bring intention, clarity and a structure to building an environment where they can connect across the divide to collaborate better. If one thing is evident in this new era, professionals have great latitude when it comes to how, where and with whom they work.

So, how can leaders shape a culture of collegiality, innovation and collaboration?
