The people most likely to leave when you put a mandate in place are your top performers and some of your longest tenured employees. They're the folks whose talents are quite attractive. -
Women are more likely to leave as well. 63% of executives polled said their return to office mandate, caused women disproportionately to leave their organization. The same percentage of executives said they had problems replacing those women with other employees and half of them said that was having a knock-on effect on their firm's ability to produce. - Brian Elliott
So bad news all around when you put a mandate in place - Brian Elliott
RTO mandates, like days in the week.
Can we move the discussion beyond this please?
The market's way to competitive, and dynamic, not to get the most from your people, regardless of when, and where they plug in their laptop. Which isn't even valid anymore as much more electronic interaction is via phone than laptop.
Yes, the world it is a changing.
Agency, Trust, and Flexibility are the ultimate benefits.
Take care of your best, so they can take care of you.
