  • Leadership challenges with hybrid employees job performance and well-being: an integrative literature review   Order a copy of this article
    by Selina Schober 
    Abstract: Hybrid work models present ongoing challenges that affect employee performance and wellbeing. These include the need for clear leadership practices, adapted management approaches, effective digital integration, balanced worklife expectations, and trust and recognition. Although hybrid work offers both opportunities and risks, limited research has systematically examined how leadership practices shape employee outcomes. In Germany, where participation in hybrid work has increased significantly, the literature has focused mainly on technology use and organisational strategies, leaving gaps in understanding the effects on productivity, performance, and wellbeing. This integrative literature review examines how leadership practices influence employee job performance and wellbeing in hybrid work environments. The findings suggest that leadership grounded in trust, autonomy, and effective boundary management is associated with higher satisfaction, motivation, and performance, whereas misaligned leadership may reduce wellbeing and engagement.
    Keywords: employee performance; employee well-being; Germany; hybrid work; hybrid leadership; leadership practices; job performance; organisational culture; remote work; transformational leadership; virtual leadership.
