HBR – Effectively leading a hybrid team requires understanding and accommodating the differing needs of introverts and extroverts. Introverts may need more time and space in meetings, which can be facilitated through tools like chat bars, hand-raising features, and asynchronous participation options. Extroverts benefit from regular face-to-face interactions, video meetings, and social activities to maintain connection and engagement. Managers should foster a digital environment that supports varied communication styles, ensuring all team members can contribute authentically. This approach promotes inclusivity and productivity as organizations transition to hybrid work models.
