Executives, managers and employees are not on the same page when it comes to where to work
Microsoft’s research continues to indicate a growing disconnect between leaders, managers and employees, specifically about where employees should do their jobs.
The Work Trends Index finds that 50% of leaders in information worker roles are planning to require full-time in-office work, but 52% of employees are somewhat or extremely likely to consider going remote or hybrid.
Those groups also have different opinions on the level of productivity provided by distributed work, as 80% of employees say productivity has stayed the same or improved since the pandemic, while 54% of leaders say the opposite.
Managers are also included in that disconnect, with 54% saying leadership is out of touch with their employees, and 74% saying they don’t have the necessary influences or resources to make changes for their team.
