How to find the best time for deep work for your team? 4 easy tips to boost your productivity in a data-informed way

The ability to focus on cognitively demanding tasks is the most important team productivity factor. In fact, as noticed by Cal Newport, “deep work is like a super power in our increasingly competitive twenty-first century economy. And yet, most people have lost the ability to go deep – spending their days instead in a frantic blur of e-mail and social media, not even realizing there's a better way”. In addition, what we’ve seen during the pandemic is that a (wrongly executed) remote work model can have a detrimental effect on our teams’ productivity levels.

That being said, ‘hybrid’ means different things for different companies. For some, it’s a way to use up their current office lease before a 100% move to a remote work model.
