    Ep.6 - Returning to the Office: Yay or Nay?
    Jun 9 2022

    🎙️ In this episode of "Cutting Through The Noise," we dive deep into the challenges and strategies surrounding the return to the office. 🏢💼

    📊 We conducted an informal poll with people who have been working for some time, and the results were surprising! 50% preferred working from home four to five days a week, while only 10% wanted to return to the office every day. 🏠🌍

    💡 But why do so many people want to work from home? We explore the reasons behind this preference and the importance of employees feeling productive and valued. We also discuss the pitfalls of remote work without collaboration. 🤝

    🔑 Is the role of a Chief Experience Officer the key? And the need for a Chief Coordinating Officer to manage scheduling in a hybrid work environment??🙈📅✅

    💥 Plus, we share insights on the importance of feeling connected to the organization's mission, and how companies can engage and foster loyalty in young employees. 🙌🌟

    Topics Covered:

    • [00:00:25] Remote work may weaken employer-employee bond.
    • [00:05:47] Survey shows mixed desire for office return.
    • [00:08:23] Remote work eliminates wasted time, but lacks social bonding.
    • [00:13:22] Engage young employees for increased connection.
    • [00:15:44] Reengage employees through effective communication and managers.
    • [00:21:38] The problem: measuring productivity, power dynamics.
    • [00:23:37] Hybrid work schedule may lead to disconnection.
    • [00:27:11] Forget the Chief Experience Officer (CXO). Is what we really need a Chief Coordinating Officer?!
