Say Goodbye to Chaos and Hello to Hybrid!

So you want to support a more flexible work model. Great!

A “hybrid” model will allow you to maximize innovation, collaboration and individual productivity. Most importantly, attraction and retention will soar because employees will want to work for you.

Your Workplace Playbook

We’ve done the research and compiled the results. Now we’re developing a playbook that will help you navigate the future of the workplace.

This is not a report! We’ve taken rich research, through anthropological methods, to help you make actionable decisions around the hybrid work environment.

“I wanted to thank you both again for the engaging and productive Design Thinking workshop you presented to Trifoia today. I was excited to hear from you and, as I expressed during the workshop, I very much appreciate the way you used the Google Suite to have an engaging process for us. You exceeded my expectations for this meeting. Thank you for your time and work on our behalf.” – Trifoia Leadership Team
