Adults or Schoolchildren? The Future of Work

Enrique Dans's Medium article discusses the shift towards flexible work arrangements in 2025, contrasting companies like Spotify and Airbnb, which embrace remote work and trust their employees, with those forcing a return to the office.  Dans argues that treating employees like adults, rather than children, fosters a more productive and innovative environment. He highlights the benefits of flexible work, emphasizing that resisting this trend is detrimental to companies' ability to attract and retain top talent. The article concludes by posing the crucial question of whether companies treat employees as adults or school children, ultimately suggesting that a flexible approach is the future of work. A reader's comment reinforces this central theme. This article is also available in English on my Medium page, «Do you treat your employees like adults or like school children?»
