A 6 year study shows which CEOs are pushing RTO mandates: The ones with the biggest egos
A six-year Wharton study found that CEO narcissism, measured through behavioral proxies like signature size and photo dimensions in annual reports, correlates with opposition to remote work and preference for return-to-office mandates. The research suggests ego-driven leaders prioritize power and status, potentially overlooking employee preferences for flexible work arrangements.
