Matt Abrahams: How we work, how we innovate and how we interact have all changed dramatically in the recent past. He talks with Glenn Carroll and Michael Arena who recently wrote a paper entitled The Adaptive Hybrid, Innovation with Virtual Work. In order to understand the adaptive hybrid work model that you all put forth, we really first need to understand the different stages of innovation," they say.
“We need to be much more adaptive in the way we think about hybrid work,” says Michael Arena. “Experiment, experiment, experiment.”
Innovation relies on teams connecting in very specific ways. But are those connections possible in a hybrid work reality? Glenn Carroll, a professor of management at Stanford GSB, and Michael Arena, a faculty member of Penn's Master's in Organizational Dynamics program, have been looking for the answer — studying how team interactions have changed since millions of workers went remote.
In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, they discuss how teams can optimize their communications to keep innovating in a post-pandemic world.
