The return to office isn’t just a logistical shift—it’s a cultural one. While some companies thrive, others see higher turnover, lower engagement, and internal resistance. What’s working? What’s failing? And how can businesses create a return-to-office strategy that actually makes employees want to stay?
 
In this episode, I break down the biggest company-wide RTO mistakes and tactical solutions to help businesses retain top talent, increase productivity, and build a workplace people actually want to be part of.

Key Takeaways:
✅ Why mandating office days without purpose drives disengagement
✅ The four-day workweek and why companies like Microsoft Japan are embracing it
✅ How to design the office for collaboration instead of unnecessary in-person Zoom calls
✅ The power of Focus Weeks and No-Meeting Days for deep work
✅ Why outcome-based performance tracking is more effective than monitoring hours worked
✅ How to ensure remote workers get fair visibility and career opportunities
