In 2021 I launched the Hybrid Work Styles Quiz which has been taken by thousands. It’s a quick 2 minute quiz which can support you in thinking a little more about your work preferences in the evolving world of work. Whether youa re in the office four days a week or still working remotely, the workspace is continuing to be super flexible in many instances, which means that there’s value in us each individually understanding what our work style preferences are.
In the Hybrid Work Styles Quiz™ there are five different styles as I share in my 2022 TEDx Talk – Coaching Teams Through Chaos. You can view that at Coaching Teams Through Chaos | Jennifer Britton | TEDxTrinityBellwoodsWomen (youtube.com)
What is your primary style? Is it:
Visionary –
Builder -
Innovative Experimenter
Connector
Social Coordinator
OR Culture Wizard
As an Innovative Experimenter™ myself, I am an advocate for ongoing experimentation and learning. As I shared in the 52 Weeks series at the Remote Pathways Podcast in 2020, here’s what I wrote about Experimentation –
In supporting experimentation in our team, we want to:
• Encourage and reward trial and error
• Create safety around not getting “things right”
• Provide team members with time and resources to experiment, beyond their everyday team responsibilities
• Facilitate an evaluation of projects or “Experiments” that are completed or are even at the midpoint
Questions we may ask at project reviews include:
Practically, incorporating more experimentation may look like:
• Putting shorter time windows on projects, with quicker checkpoints to see what is working, and what is not
• Moving projects out of design phase and into beta more quickly so that pilots can be rolled out and/or early adopters can take the program for a test drive
• Looking at testing a couple of different strategies at the same time, with the notion that they may not be as fully developed as they have been in the past. Early results may inform what gets further developed and/or followed
