From Research to Impact: Understanding People. Strengthening Teams. Improving Performance.

The future of work is being written right now.

Organisations are investing in AI, redesigning workplaces, rethinking collaboration and adapting to changing workforce expectations.

Yet amid all this change, one question remains: what helps people and teams perform at their best?

Drawing on insights from more than 78,000 individuals across 30+ countries, The Future of Teamwork 2027 explores some of the biggest questions facing organisations today. Are generational differences really shaping behaviour at work? How is AI changing the way people contribute? What helps hybrid teams stay connected and effective? And why does self-awareness continue to matter, even as technology transforms the workplace?

Combining new research with decades of insight into workplace behaviour and team performance, the report explores how organisations can build stronger, more adaptable and more effective teams in a rapidly changing world.

Challenging assumptions

Our findings challenge some of the most common assumptions about work today:

  • Are generational differences really as significant as we think?
  • Is AI changing what people do, or changing how they contribute?
  • Why do some hybrid teams thrive while others struggle to stay connected and engaged?
  • What role does self-awareness play in individual and team success?
  • What can behavioural patterns across industries tell us about building stronger teams?

The report also uncovers fascinating Team Role trends across functions and industries, revealing how different strengths emerge in different environments and what organisations can learn from them.

Based on insights from more than 78,000 individuals worldwide, alongside decades of research into workplace behaviour and team performance, the findings offer a fresh perspective on what drives team effectiveness in a changing world.

Because the future of work is not just about technology. It's about understanding people and translating that understanding into better teamwork, stronger performance and lasting organisational impact.
