The RISE of HYBRID JOBS

More and more companies are looking for professionals who have specialized skills in more than one area to fill so-called hybrid jobs. Some of these jobs are new, some are new versions of existing ones, but all of them pose different challenges for workers, students, employers and educators.

The advantage of hiring a hybrid workforce is that they can adapt to new work environments; however, business and HR leaders are facing some important questions concerning the impact that a hybrid workforce will have on workplace culture and collaboration, and diversity and inclusion. The organizations that will thrive will be those that identify, recruit and retain the skills they need to compete and develop learning cultures that ensure their teams have the agility and speed to adapt.
