That article kind of misses the premise of its own headline.
90% of the article is the usual discussion about working from home: Are employers more or less productive, cultural changes after COVID, managers reasons for RTO, etc
But all of these don't answer the why of the actual key observation:
"...they are losing experienced managers and top performers at disproportionate rates"
Why disproportionate? There could be many reasons, but there is surely an obvious one:
"You can force employees back to the office, but not the good ones "
And why is that so? Because you're less likely to force a good employee than a bad employee to do something, simply because the bad employee has less opportunities to leave your company.
The more interesting question would have been, whether there is actually a disproportionate amount of good employees, which wanted to work from home and therefore left, or only a disproportionate amount of good employees, which were able to leave (which is naturally always the case).
