The article argues for the benefits of flexible work arrangements, emphasizing that prioritizing actual results over monitoring physical presence can enhance productivity and employee well-being. Eric Severson, former CPO at Neiman Marcus Group, highlights the successful implementation of flexible work practices that emphasize accountability. Despite resistance from traditional leadership valuing visibility over productivity, research shows that reduced turnover and stress linked to flexible work can benefit both companies and employees, advocating for a shift in corporate culture toward results-based management.

"Too often, when CEOs say they need people to return to the office to strengthen 'culture,' what they are really looking for are the visible signs of hustle culture."
