What Do Employees Want When They Return to the Office? (Wise Decision Maker Guide 46)

Greetings Decision maker,

What do employees want in returning to the office after the pandemic?

It’s easy to assume we know what they want. Our assumption is that they want what we would want in their circumstances. In other words, we place ourselves in other people’s shoes.

Unfortunately, that assumption falls into a dangerous judgment error termed the false consensus effect. This problematic mental blindspot causes us to perceive others who we feel to be in our tribe, such as those who work in our organization, as sharing our values and beliefs. That’s often not the case. Indeed, top companies like Google and Amazon had to change their originally-declared return to work policies because of employee pushback and resignations.

To help yourself and those in your organization avoid screwing up the return to the office, check out this blog.

“Dr. Tsipursky spoke at the California Society of Association Executives Building Capacity Summit on “Outstanding Association Leadership Through Social Intelligence” which our attendees thoroughly enjoyed. He was very engaging even through a pre-recorded virtual session. We received many positive feedbacks from our attendees and each one walked away with several key points that they can implement right away. I recommend Dr. Tsipursky if you’re looking for a dynamic speaker.”

Sina Tate, Director of Education, California Society of Association Executives

What's Up With Me

One of the more difficult aspects of the COVID pandemic for me was the inability to see my parents. I live in Columbus, Ohio, and they live in New York City, over 500 miles away. Well, now that we are all vaccinated, we finally saw each other in person. It was a wonderful experience and one more sign of the transition away from the pandemic.

Seeing them enabled me finally to have a conversation with them I’ve wanted to have for a long time, but also dreaded: learning about their end-of-life decisions. It’s an awkward topic for a son to bring up to his parents, as I didn’t know how they would respond. Still, given that my dad was pretty sick with COVID, I decided it was time to force the issue. Fortunately, the conversation went well. I now know more about what my parents want and have more clarity. While an unpleasant topic, it was important to have that talk.

Here is a photo of me with my parents during their visit.
