  I said from the beginning it’s all a matter of time before we all go back. The C suite loves seeing butts in seats. Outside of software, and even some reluctance there, I think most leaders are only not going back full in office because they don’t want an exodus during a labor shortage. Otherwise they’d have required it by now. I’m privy to the boardroom setting and know the C suite personalities well enough. They make jokes about lazy inefficiency of WFH. They feel out of control if they can’t walk to your desk and demand something is a priority. They don’t know how to lead in a WFH world. Also, by definition their job is usually to be in meetings all day every day and they just don’t enjoy the zoom experience as much because of it. They like to wear fancy dry cleaned cloths when everyone else just wants to wear basketball shorts and a tee shirt at home.
