The pandemic fundamentally changed how employees interact with each other and their leadership teams. If Hybrid Work is becoming your company's new normal, here are the 6 metrics that you should be measuring to make sure it's a success.

Amid persistently high inflation, volatile market conditions, and uncertainty on consumer demand and sentiment, companies are increasingly starting to freeze hiring. Teams are quickly realizing that they need to find ways to work more efficiently with limited resources. How do organizations work to adapt to these new challenges?
