I don't think we should take any lessons from what CEOs say. If studies show that too much remote work indeed makes for worse results, I'm fine with it. If a CEO says it? Most likely a lie.

Seriously I don't understand the mindset of people who treat everything a CEO says as gospel. How much is a CEO actually involved in the collaboration or innovation going on at the IC level? Somewhere between "barely" and "not at all" I'd guess. No doubt the CEO has personal reasons he wants people back in office, and just put some BS in the all hands meeting to make it sound good
