Beschreibung

To learn more about the possibilities and challenges of hybrid work culture, master students from SDU in Denmark and KIT in Germany worked together in a hybrid seminar. When you’re working remotely, feelings of belonging and identity can change and you might not form the same connections to your colleagues and your workplace. This affects our well-being – there is something missing if we don’t have connection as well as productivity during our everyday working life.
The main challenges the students identified hybrid work brings in this context are:

- body language and social cues are harder to read in online meetings
- it´s harder to feel a sense of belonging between the in-person team and the online workers
- office culture staples like the coffee talk or the hallway-meeting are not accessible for online-workers

Possible ways of addressing these problems are currently being researched by the students at SDU, for example testing a hybrid buddy system to connect in-person colleagues to their online co-workers.
