(taken from a tech company that's implemented this in the US)
1. Having 'noise lights' set up in across the office - they are green when noise levels are good, orange when it's rising, red when it's too loud. This helps people who are conversing around people who are in an online meeting. I think Jabra make them?
2. Taking the online benefit of having a 'busy' or 'available' status in person at the office by having a little red/green flag that you can put up at your desk to indicate to those around you if you are available to interrupt or not.

The pandemic required us to change even if we didn't want to. Now we have opened a whole new way of doing things, reflecting on all processes as we return to normal. Consider "we have always done it like that" well can we change it. Just because we can now go back to a lot of previous ways, should we? What has increased productivity during WFH? What dropped off that we don't really need to bring back?
We also don't need a fixed rule. One meeting could be in person, then the next online. We can also try things and change them.
It would be nice if what we learned and adapted to in the last few years is not just lost as the pandemic (hopefully) becomes part of the rear-view.
