The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated changes to the nature of work, with many companies in the knowledge sector adopting a hybrid workplace model requiring leaders to adapt to this new normal. The problem explored in this study was the need to understand how the potential obstacles associated with leading in a hybrid workplace model may have affected female leaders' ability to navigate their career growth and advancement. The aim of this hermeneutic phenomenology was to understand and describe potential new barriers and opportunities female leaders must navigate and the potential benefits of adopting a Situational Leadership® style when transitioning from leading in a purely remote workplace during COVID-19 to a permanent hybrid workplace model. The conceptual framework included leadership theory, the Situational Leadership® style, the concept of gender equality in the workplace, and the hybrid workplace model. Data collection involved one-on-one, semi-structured interviews with 18 female leaders from Toronto, Canada, who had transitioned to leading knowledge workers in a new hybrid workplace model. Twenty-three themes emerged from thematic data analysis, including discovering a new barrier to career growth related to decreased serendipitous career growth opportunities and uncovering the benefit of adopting a Situational Leadership® style based on empowering and building trust within a distributed team. Study findings may contribute to positive social change by providing female leaders with new knowledge that may help them better navigate career growth, and organizational leaders may better understand how to advance gender equality in a hybrid workplace model.
