Boy do I disagree with this op-ed about the risks of not returning to the office (one of which is just...i, the ceo, just might make you a contractor instead of an employee!) https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/05/06/ceo-i-want-my-employees-understand-risks-not-returning-work-office/
if you...are paying your employees with the expectation that 20 percent of their salary is dependent on them being good at celebrating birthdays in the break room well...idk!
if your 'culture' is one where your employees are like, 'no thanks, i'm not gonna help this guy i don't know him' to a new colleague...you might have...bigger problems!
Again, this also sounds a bit like...a threat? And yeah you don't need to have a 3 minute zoom (but you could have one! there's no set reason a zoom has to be 30 min long!)...but you could, i dunno...do the work to evolve how your office works!
ok the last line is hilarious. just a straight up parody of like a mobster style threat. 'hey...nice career you got there...be a shame if...you know...somethin happened to it'
the CEO is right...going remote/hybrid will take hard work. it is also an investment! as far as trust - it's not about remote. that comes from the way managers treat employees. it happens when you listen to what they want & when you dont micromanage & when you model vulnerability
do i need to blog about this tomorrow?
i shall get up early and blog about it
