A company is only as healthy as its employees. At a time when maintaining that health takes a lot of a personās energy, leaders cannot expect their employees to be fully dedicated to the mission without support.

Are you asking your employees to come back to the office because you truly believe theyāll produce better work there? Or is it because thatās just āhow itās always beenā?
Have faith in your people.

Letting employees clock off an hour early on a Friday ā flexibility
Beanbags in the office ā a solid company culture
Checking up on people every 5 minutes ā invested management
Wake up, leaders. People want true freedom and autonomy ā not ping-pong tables and gimmicks.

Some reassurance for anyone who needs it:
Not all employers will force you to work from an in-office location.
Not all employers will micromanage.
If your expectations arenāt being met, you can and will find better elsewhere.

Some things that are more important to me than work:
Family
My mental health and wellbeing
The mental health and well-being of others
Quality of life
These are key for most others ā which is why we've built a culture at @HeyOyster to allow people to prioritise them.

Emotional safety at work is important and something that leaders often overlook.
Ultimately, leadership is about creating connections with people ā and in order to do that effectively, people need to feel safe and comfortable.

Are return-to-office mandates causing a dip in productivity and engagement? š¤
With employees reporting that they're more satisfied and engaged thanks to remote and hybrid work, is it any wonder productivity has slumped?

According to @KastleSystems, 50% of American employees are now back in the office compared to pre-pandemic levels.

The impact of remote work has been a distinctly human one.
Late last year, we conducted a survey of people in emerging markets who had been hired through the Oyster platform.
The results were positive and affirming š

One of the most important objectives in my life is to be present for my children, in a way that is without interruption.
As a CEO of a company whose mission I believe inĀ ā I am proof that this doesnāt have to be at the cost of making priceless memories with family ā¤ļø

I donāt care when you log in.
I donāt care if you work from a cafe, the park or your bathroom floor.
I donāt care if you stop working for a few hours to rejuvenate.
What I do care about is making that mission as achievable as possible for every employee.
