As many organizations, including federal employees, enforce return-to-office mandates, there’s a counter-narrative advocating for flexible work-from-home policies. The author, with extensive experience, suggests that flexibility can enhance productivity, attract talent, and foster innovation. While collaboration in person is valuable, it doesn't need to happen daily. Instead of following the crowd, which can stifle innovation, embracing a flexible, intentional approach to office time may yield better results for both employees and organizations alike.
It makes no sense to me to force someone to spend hours in traffic, arriving at the office frustrated and drained, only to spend most of the day working alone.
Taking a counterculture approach to the workforce doesn't mean that an organization will fall behind; in fact, doing things differently can lead to growth and better productivity.
