LEADING HYBRID TEAMS
What is it?
‘Hybrid Working’ is a series of facilitated workshops focused on shaping workplaces to become high-performing locations both at home and at the on-site office. Selected Semco Style’s practices form the program’s engine, with each workshop providing clear guidelines for action and implementation. The practices are built on Semco’s 40 years of experience with Hybrid Working. These will come to life in interactive sessions through case studies, facilitated discussions, games, and simulations.
Who is it for?
If you are a leader, policymaker, and enthusiast keen on enhancing communication, individual and team alignment, or co-creating social boundaries at the workplace, then this program is for you.
About Hybrid Working
The Hybrid Working way combines two elements that complement each other to achieve a predetermined goal. In today’s work environment, only a few have been able to truly understand the hybrid model, let alone implement it successfully. As a result, it has been easy for managers to fall into old command-and-control behaviors while treading unfamiliar ground.
Hybrid working aims at empowering organizations with the tools required to create a workplace that embraces an agile future – either from home or the office.

Workshop Series 1
Finding Your Role as a Leader
The bridge to a motivated workplace can only be crossed when there is a culture of commitment. As a leader, how would you go about facilitating such a culture?
In these two workshops, we focus on the changing role of leaders who empower, rather than dominate, the workforce. For leaders to truly feel comfortable in their new role, they need clarity about responsibilities, goals, and, above all, the strengths of their team. In the first workshop, we will discuss directly applicable practices that you can experiment with within your organization between the two workshops.
Active role play and games during the workshops will help you as a leader understand how to take control without being controlling. You will experiment with having honest conversations and motivating others to feel in control of their own roles and responsibilities.
In this program, you will:
- Participate in two 3-hour interactive workshops via Zoom and MIRO
- Centralize the question — ‘How can leaders feel comfortable in their new role?’’
- Learn to create clarity in your role as a leader
- Experiment with directly applicable practices such as
- Boundaries for action
- Define roles and responsibilities
- Start the Hybrid Assessment – the steppingstone to creating a hybrid organization
Workshop Series 2
Enabling Hybrid Teams
Some of the benefits of a hybrid organization are more flexible hours and collaboration to achieve desired results. These two workshops will focus on the question of creating a social agreement that reflects the goals of your organization while entrusting teams with the process of getting there.
You will learn how to align personal interests with those of the larger collective. Setting guidelines and boundaries, by expressing both personal and collective goals, will help build awareness. By the end of the workshops, you will be able to empower teams by understanding how to shape their role and define their responsibilities.
In this program, you will:
- Participate in two 3-hour interactive workshops via Zoom and MIRO

- Learn how to align personal and organizational goals
- Experiment with directly applicable practices such as:
- Co-creating your social contract

Workshop Series 3
Performing in a Hybrid team
These two workshops will focus on the performance within a hybrid team. What instruments and support tools are there to track performance? What behaviors are needed to maintain an adequate level of alignment? And when do hybrid teams perform successfully?
You will learn to develop new habits that stimulate performance in a hybrid or remote setting. Through interactive sessions, participants will experience the challenges and opportunities hybrid working provides. In addition, they will equip themselves with practices to experiment with directly.
To experiment with creating alignment between leaders, teams, and departments, it is essential to balance the interests of everyone involved. In the first workshop, we will discuss directly applicable practices which you can experiment with within your organization between the two workshops. At the end of the second workshop, you will have a plan of approach.
In this program, you will:
- Participate in two 3-hour interactive workshops via Zoom and MIRO
- Centralize the question — ‘When are you successful in a hybrid team?’’
- Learn how to align personal and organizational goals
- Experiment with directly applicable practices such as:
- Straightforward reports
- Team performance instrument
Full workshop series
In order to understand the full length of working in a hybrid format, HR policymakers, leaders and teams need to understand their roles in accordance with those of their peers. Identifying your role in an organization must align with the goals of others to become truly autonomous. Now, independence has evolved into becoming interdependent as an organization.
In the full workshop series, you reimagine roles and responsibilities from all streams that add value to your organization. Translating knowledge from one series into the other will aid your learning process of co-creating a transformation that remains clear and focused. At the end of the full workshop series, you understand the dynamics and needs of becoming a truly hybrid workplace.
In this program, you will:
- Participate in six 3-hour interactive workshops via Zoom and MIRO
- Centralize the question — ‘How to maintain focus on what to work on while allowing for freedom to shape how to work?’’
- Learn to become interdependent as a team instead of (in)dependent as a team member
- Experiment with directly applicable practices such as:
- The Why Way
- Boundaries for Action
- Co-creating your Social Contract
- Get 3-month access to the Semco Style Eco-System – our digital library
