There's also this, which makes a great deal of sense to me even as it angers me from the other end of the power gradient. Management likes to do things that feel good to management.
- i_am_jl 2y agoI dunno. I feel like if executives believed they were hamstringing their teams with RTO edicts they wouldn't see them as so fulfilling or fun. Maybe I'm giving executives too much credit but I believe that, for the most part, they believe they're better managers when their employees are in the office. I think that's true in a lot of cases, but it also ignores that employees can be better workers when they're hybrid or remote.

I don't know, I'd say a usual expectation of a worker is to learn how to adapt to a changing understanding of their work, but like, maybe I'm expecting too much. Why would I expect managers to keep up to date on management research, it's not like they're being paid for doing their jobs well or anything. Edit: fun fact, it's been so far my experience that C levels are surprised management research exists.
