This episode of The Art of Entrepreneurship is for any leader still trying to drag their team back into the office—or manage remote work like it’s a surveillance state.
The truth? Remote and hybrid work aren’t going anywhere. But the old way of managing—hovering, second-guessing, and mistrusting your people—needs to go. In this episode, I’m unpacking why return-to-office mandates are flatlining, how flexibility can still come with structure, and what it actually looks like to treat your team like adults.
I share the policies that work for my agency, what we’ve tried (and ditched), and how leaning into trust, autonomy and clarity has led to a 4.6-year average retention rate—more than double the agency standard.
Tune in to rethink what work can, and should, look like when you build a culture of trust over control.
