Hybrid working poses real challenges for team leaders but there are ways of accommodating staff preferences while also achieving business goals
Those of you of a similar vintage to us might remember the classic Amiga game “Lemmings” in which the player had to guide a group of miniature rodents through a series of increasingly hazardous obstacles to a final haven. Initially the lemmings were compliant, moving together as a herd. But as the game progressed, they developed autonomy and would head off in different directions much to the player’s frustration. Clearly, managing a herd is infinitely easier than attempting to corral a group of individuals with their own paths in mind.
The struggle we faced when playing Lemmings 25 years ago reminds us very clearly of the difficulties faced by the leaders we work with today.
