When the global pandemic forced us to go remote, it gave us an opportunity to do what we do best: innovate by co-creating. We applied this to the way we work. At Philips, we now have three main role categories – on-site, mobile, and, hybrid, which replaces previously office-based roles. Hybrid working fuses flexibility with collaboration and helps our people meet the changing demands of work and home in the most balanced, productive, and healthy way. We’re embracing an approach where we spend more time together than apart – on average at least 3 days working from the office and up to 2 days from home for full time employees – for our hybrid roles*.

Don't just create a strategy.

That’s the daily reality of many Philips executives. And it can be yours, too.
Leading the conversation:
What does it take to be a leader?
What does leadership look like in the modern world? Should a leader be a manager, a coach, or a mentor?

Philips employees tackle in our series of insightful videos from around the world,
as they dive into the topic of what leadership means at Philips today.

What does it take to be a leader?

Our hybrid working model is defined in 3 ways:

Impactful collaboration
There's an energy when everyone’s in the same room that can heighten creative problem solving. That’s why we have physical hubs around the world where people can come together.

Embracing flexibility
Choosing where, when and how to work can vary according to task and team schedules. Flexibility isn’t office or online, it’s choosing the space that works best for you, your teams and our customers on a case-by-case basis.

Be at your best
The way we work and our workspaces are designed to support our well-being, offer career advancement opportunities, and enable us to be at our best. Our aim is for Philips to be the best place to work for people who share our passion.

But if you’re eager to reach beyond past limitations, to risk a comfortable status quo for a dynamic, ever-evolving future, take a closer look at Philips.
Frankly, as a leader at Philips you’ll encounter a significant element of the unexpected. You may be given the opportunity to drive a new business. To transform an area of the organization you hadn't considered before. To provide coaching and mentoring. Or it may be that you discover the impact of the work that you do is far greater than you could ever have imagined. Regardless of how your legacy develops, working at Philips will give you the platform you need to showcase your best virtues.
