Home Office, In-Person, or Hybrid? See How to Choose Based on Real-World Indicators

The choice between work models—home office, in-person, or hybrid—shouldn’t be made based on guesswork, momentary trends, or isolated preferences. In a scenario where performance and well-being go hand in hand, the smartest decision is one based on concrete data, real indicators, and continuous analysis.

What does the data say about work models?
The “Future of Work” survey found that:
• 91% of workers say they are more productive in models with greater autonomy;
• 68% of managers still cannot accurately assess their teams’ productivity;
• 57% of companies that adopt data-driven decisions report better levels of engagement and talent retention.
In other words, the challenge isn’t just choosing the model, but having sufficient visibility to understand which one works best for each team, department, or role.

Indicators that matter (and that you need to monitor)
To make smart decisions about the ideal work format, it’s essential to monitor indicators such as:
• Productivity rate per employee;
• Real-time dedicated to strategic tasks;
• Meeting participation and efficiency rates;
• Peaks in workload and non-ideal working hours;
• Engagement and interaction among distributed teams.

This data reveals where there is most fluidity, where bottlenecks exist, and how the work model directly affects performance.

Productivity Radar: Data that Guides Decisions

The Productivity Radar was developed to transform this information into strategy. Through a platform integrated with Microsoft Teams, Exchange, and employees’ own desktops, it captures, organizes, and presents the most relevant data in visual, simple, and actionable dashboards.

With it, you can understand:
• Which areas benefit most from remote work;
• Where in-person work is still necessary;
• How to balance autonomy with responsibility;
• And how to adapt the hybrid model based on real evidence.

Benefits of Data-Based Decisions
Companies that adopt indicator-driven management are more likely to:
• Reduce turnover;
• Promote greater satisfaction and well-being;
• Increase overall productivity;
• Ensure alignment between organizational culture and work model.

Conclusion
There is no universal ideal model. But there is an ideal model for your company—and it can only be identified with the support of solid indicators. With the Productivity Radar, your company can leave assumption-based management behind and begin leading with intelligence, clarity, and results.
