“Employees don’t want to be employees, they don’t want to work for managers and they don’t want to work for executives. They want to be human beings who work for other human beings. And I think authenticity and the importance of being human, understanding the things they’re dealing with as humans, and building that into how you approach them in your day-to-day work with them, is so important.”
—Chuck Robbins, CEO, Cisco
“You need to communicate like crazy, be transparent about everything you’re doing all the time. You can’t communicate enough in this environment.

—Chris Nassetta, CEO, Hilton

The majority of our employees still want to be on campus some of the time yet many would also enjoy the flexibility of working from home a couple days a week….spending time in another city for part of the year, or even moving there permanently.

—Sundar Pichai, CEO, GOOGLE
“I do think for a business like ours which is an innovative, collaborative apprenticeship culture, this is not ideal for us and remote work is not a new normal”
