HubSpot, a customer relationship management (CRM) platform for scaling companies, released its 2022 Hybrid Work Report, exploring how the world worked in 2021.
The past year has brought seismic shifts to how and where we work. In 2021, employees had the chance to experience the flexibility of working remotely and in the office, leading many organizations to embrace and adopt hybrid work models. According to HubSpot, hybrid work is here to stay and 2022 is about making it future proof.
HubSpot’s 2022 Hybrid Work Report reveals findings on collaboration, culture, communication, mental health and management in a hybrid world. The report analyzed feedback from HubSpot’s hybrid workforce and surveyed more than 4,000 full-time remote, in-office and flex workers from companies in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Here are some key highlights from the survey:

As the pandemic continues to evolve, so does the way we work. As Katie Burke, HubSpot’s Chief People Officer says, “One key learning over the past year is that caring and listening are table stakes. The companies who will be successful in 2022 and beyond will match that listening with action, setting bold strategies for the new future of work. For us at HubSpot, that’s focusing on making sure our commitment to flexibility scales with our company in a way that is fair, inclusive, and friction-free, no matter where you choose to work from.”
