Designing Culturally Responsive Hybrid Work Policies: Assessing the Impact of National Culture on Adoption and Effectiveness.

This thesis analyzes the evolving concepts of working time and space in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and accelerated digitization, focusing on the rise of hybrid work models. It explores how cultural values and contextual factors influence the adoption, implementation, and perception of hybrid work across national and organizational settings. The study aims to understand the consequences for companies, in terms of coordination and office space organization, and for individuals, regarding social relationships and autonomy, ultimately providing recommendations for multinational organizations navigating culturally diverse work environments.
