Audience Level: All

A lively panel discussion exploring how two different studios are approaching the post-COVID future of remote, hybrid and in-office work policies. By applying their company values, each studio has come up with a unique and evolving approach that works for them. The discussion touches on hiring, retention, career development, creative collaboration, IT considerations, and more. The panelists compare notes, share lessons learned, and talk about what's next.

Takeaway

The presenters will share their experience of developing and implementing their remote/hybrid/in-office work policies. Learnings, best practices, pros and cons. The "obvious things" that didn't work. The surprising things that did! Attendees will be able to take observations and ideas back to their studios for consideration.

Intended Audience

This panel will be of interest to any game developer with a stake in the future of remote, hybrid, and in-office work policy - at their studio today, and across the industry generally. Studio leadership, HR, and operations will be especially interested.
