Guest: Dr. Gleb Tsipursky

Many CEOs and executives insisting on staff returning to the office full time are making decisions based on myths about hybrid work. The truth may surprise them – and you!

Dr. Gleb Tsipursky busts those myths with hard data and direct experience with 23+ organizations. The bottom line: for the majority of “office” workers, hybrid work benefits both wellbeing and productivity. With mental health concerns at an all time high world-wide, that’s a message more employers should be paying attention to.

Here's what Gleb and host Maureen Metcalf cover:

• How hybrid work boosts not only boosts mental well-being and productivity, but employee retention and satisfaction, too;
• How to establish new norms for workdays that accommodate diverse lifestyles; and
• Why workers feel social isolation in the office, too – and targeted strategies to combat it!
