74、rprisingly,interest rates,AI,and the US presidential election and geopolitical uncertainty seem to be top of mind for everyone,regardless of their general outlook.What was more notable was respondents outlook regarding the effects of hybrid work models on their organizations.Those with a pessimistic
75、 outlook cited the effects of hybrid work only 13%of the time,while those with an optimistic outlook cited hybrid 27%of the time.It is encouraging to see that new working norms are more often a cause for a positive outlook,especially following so many years of uncertainty and conflict.Regardless of
