About this episode
Dennis discusses two contradictory findings regarding working remotely or in-office during Covid.
Companies that force employees back into the office see lower morale and higher turnover. However, remote workers were promoted 31% less frequently.
The first piece of advice is to decide what you want from your life and job - promotions or remote work. Choose based on your life goals, not just your job's demands. This may mean parting ways if they conflict.
The second advice is to have an open dialogue with your boss. Explain your situation and thinking. Often, a compromise can be found that satisfies both your life needs and the business's, but this requires communication.
Not all situations can be resolved, but communication is key to finding potential solutions the speaker may not have considered. Getting everyone's needs met leads to the best outcome.
