56% of APAC leaders lack long-term plans for hybrid work
More than half, or 56%, of leaders in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region admit to not having a long-term vision of what a hybrid work model would look like in their organizations.
According to a report by leadership development provider The Center for Creative Leadership (CCL), the adoption of the hybrid work model — also known as Work 3.0 — increased from 41% pre-pandemic to 80% post-pandemic.
CCL APAC Managing Director and VP Elisa Mallis said many regional leaders are “stepping up to define a new vision for hybrid work and equip themselves with the right skills for Work 3.0.”
“What is clear is that the success of hybrid depends on people and culture, rather than technology; on building and, in some cases re-building cohesive relationships within and across teams. We can consider it a re-building of the heartware,” added Mallis.
While the majority of leaders are embracing the benefits of Work 3.0, the report highlighted a need to stay clear of myths and focus on tackling emerging challenges head-on.
Furthermore, the report stated that the success of hybrid work will hinge on people and culture, and how leaders must evolve alongside the new realities of the workplace. It also articulates the five roles hybrid leaders must embrace to continue thriving in the hybrid space.
