Contrary to the common belief that in-person collaboration boosts creativity, our findings suggest that the flexibility offered by hybrid work is a significant catalyst for creativity. Researchers benefit from a combination of focused individual work and carefully managed co-present interactions, which allows for deeper problem-oriented discussions rather than traditional brainstorming sessions.

Organizations should rethink their scheduling strategies beyond a simple weekly cadence. It's important to consider factors such as the nature of tasks, the effectiveness of in-person meetings, and individual preferences for social interaction. A flexible approach that accommodates diverse needs can enhance both productivity and creativity in a hybrid work environment.
