No time to read? Listen here. (5 min). We’ve seen a rash of companies require their employees to come back to the office — gradually by moving up the requirement one day at a time or all at once by setting a deadline for return. And they’re getting massive pushback. Why is management so focused on getting employees back into the office?

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

If you ask most people whether science is a public good, I suspect most would argue that it was, yet the output of scientists’ efforts can often be hard to ascertain, much less quite how the public benefits from it. Of course, a big part of the challenge is that it’s incredibly difficult to quantify the value of scientific research, but that’s what a new paper from the Kellogg School aims to do.
