    Productivity can be highly dependant on office or home environment. For example, noisy open plan office, or constant domestic interruptions at home can both be a block to getting stuff done.

    For me the ideal is a bit of office time for collaboration, then working in my private office for getting stuff done time. But of course, productivity can be highly personal too.

      I am quite lucky with my current role. Its not so much hybrid but they have connection days and office days. Connection days happen once every quarter. If you live within 1 hour travel to an office you are expected to come in, but its not for work, its more a meetup.
      The last one was in Feb, as it was health heart month (or something like that) they had a company come in offering 10min health checks (BP, Blood sugar etc). They do quizzes/games and put on a nice lunch.
      The aim is to meet your coworkers and build a relationship. As much as WFH is great, you lose that ability to build a rapport and that can be crucial when working on projects/ in cross functional teams. You are more likely to get someone to do somethign if they know who are, rather than just a faceless someone at the end of a phone/email.
      Alongside this they do the first wednesday of the month is an office day if a team wants to block book desks and meeting rooms to get together.
