Not leading by example

Some bosses claim a lack of space keeps them home, while others might say they don't need to come into the office as they are doing more high-level work. There is also the possibility that some managers see working from home as a benefit of seniority. But it is not leading by example.

Yet not all managers change the rules because they are in power. Statistically, managers were among the most burned-out workers in 2021. Managers act on the temptation to stay home and reduce stress even if they otherwise want to lead by example.
