NO Flexiblilty. NO WFH. Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, delivered a strong town hall recently, doubling down on his stance: full-time office attendance is non-negotiable.

Many other CEO's from the worlds leading companies are doing the same. In this episode, I share my take on this.

Many leaders argue that in-person work drives collaboration, efficiency, and creativity, but is this approach sustainable in a world where employees increasingly value flexibility?

The backlash from employees has been significant, yet a growing number of leaders remain firm, telling employees that the company, not individuals, will decide what works best for business operations.

This decision raises big questions:

👉 Is the era of remote work coming to an end for corporate giants?

👉 Will rigid return-to-office mandates hurt employee retention and morale?

👉 Or is Dimon right—does office-first culture truly drive better results? Here is my perspective on this heated debate. Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Is this “fair enough”? Or does it miss the mark in today’s workplace?
