It looks like hybrid work is back. Here’s our checklists for how to prep for being in the office:

‍

Going in to focus

• Think about how you want to spend your commute
• Draft a ‘to do’ list for the day
• Block focus time on your calendar
• Plan time for “watercooler chats”
• Have a plan for food

‍

Going in to network

• Coordinate with who you want to see
• Reduce number of zoom meetings
• Set plans to see people for not work related things (coffee, lunch, or happy hour)
• Be flexible but have back-up snacks

‍

Going in because you have to

• Think about how you want to spend your commute
• Pre-determine your ‘social’ days and your ‘not social’ days
• For social days: Coordinate with who you want to see
• For not social days: Block focus time on your calendar
• Have a plan for food
