EXPLORING LEARNING IN HYBRID WORK: A WAY FORWARD

Abstract

Hybrid work teams have recently gained popularity, with advances in digital technology and the pandemic problem, and are now essential for the new working world that has emerged since the outbreak. Consequently, workplace learning, which is crucial for employee development, has been affected, as the nature of work and the work environment is changing. There is therefore an urgent need for research on learning in the current hybrid work teams, as studies show that there is insufficient research on digital workplace learning, and businesses must adapt to this work model to survive. The focus of this study is to increase the understanding of the learning process in hybrid work. The study employs a qualitative research strategy with a multiple case study design with hybrid work teams. The data will be collected through in-depth interviews and focus groups with selected digitalized organizations. The study will contribute to the CSCW discourse by providing insights into the future of work teams, learning, and knowledge-sharing in such teams.
