⚠️ Productivity illusion: “Ghostworking” is now standard operating procedure in many offices 🧑‍💻🕵️‍♂️

Fast Company reports:
📊 58% of U.S. employees say they regularly pretend to work
📞 15% have faked phone calls
📅 12% schedule fake meetings
🎹 22% use keyboards like musical props

Why?
💼 Fear of layoffs
🤖 Unclear expectations post-AI
🔍 Pressure to “look busy” > deliver impact

Ghostworking isn’t about disengagement — it’s about performing productivity in workplaces where clarity, trust, and job security are eroding.

🔒 Surveillance won’t fix it. In fact, it makes it worse.
🧠 The solution? Leadership that focuses on outcomes, not optics.
🤝 Trust, flexibility, and alignment create real engagement — not performative behavior.

🌍 Work from home isn’t dying — it’s the new default for millions 🧑‍💻🧠

A massive global study led by Stanford economist Nicholas Bloom found:
📊 WFH levels have stabilized worldwide since 2023
🌐 Hybrid is most common in the U.S., UK, Canada, Australia, and other individualistic societies
💼 Companies benefit: a 35% drop in quit rates when employees can WFH 2 days/week
🧠 Productivity holds steady; retention and savings go up
🏢 Full in-office mandates? Increasingly out of sync with data

The key takeaway? Return-to-office mandates aren’t a comeback — they’re a cultural countertrend.
