"Across all three studies, narcissism was the only factor that consistently predicted leaders' objections to remote work.
Summarising their findings for the New York Times, the authors concluded: "The higher the opinions of themselves leaders expressed, the more they coveted power and status — and the more they favoured full-time return-to-office mandates.""

'Narcissist' bosses are more likely to oppose work from home, studies show.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07-21/narcissist-bosses-oppose-work-from-home/106937492Once again, studies have found narcissism is a consistent factor in corporate leaders who object to remote work and insist on people working in an office. CEOs and managers who are obsessed with power and status are the root cause of return to office mandates. Meanwhile, studies have found that workers are diligent enough to perform as well under bad office conditions as they do if they work from home, but at the cost of higher staff turnover. Conversely, WFH is good for job satisfaction and work-life balance.

An amusing account of the hatred for WFH. It’s dies however neglect the ‘we have to rent buildings’ influence though. Alway mildly narcissistic (get you says the cat), our company actually built itself around the offers of ‘decent salary, profit sharing now employee ownership) and the choice of where you wanted to work (with the understanding that occasional travel might be required). Surprisingly (🙄) successful.

Work from home as a permanent form of employment or an occasional one, is here to stay. A study by the Minneapolis Fed shows that, as a percentage of employees, #WFH has barely budged in the past two years. Is this good or bad for cities? Doesn’t matter. The question now is … HOW do we make WFH good for cities? https://www.minneapolisfed.org/article/2026/is-remote-work-declining-what-the-latest-data-show

After an extremely productive day working from home, I’m treating myself to an hour on the balcony. It’s 28C and there’s a lovely breeze. Just perfect 👌 ☀️ #sunbathing #wfh #london

A problem can be an opportunity in disguise. Take the nearly empty #parking lots owned by BART, the Bay Area commuter rail system. #WFH and hybrid work schedules have reduced the need for all that parking. But the S.F. area does need #housing and #transit-oriented developments. So … https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/bart-parking-lots-empty-22330591.php

Researchers find that narcissistic leaders (executives, middle managers, supervisors) tend to resist remote work because it interferes with their motivations for power and status.

#Fortune500 bosses demanding staff return to the office (#RTO) share one trait: #Narcissism, research finds
A new study from #Wharton organizational psychologist Adam Grant and coauthors Marissa Shandell and Courtney Elliott found that leader narcissism was associated with greater resistance to #remotework. A big reason? Power trips are easier to stage in person.

S.F.’s #transit systems saw a huge exodus of riders during Covid. Just as officials despaired this was permanent, something odd happened: Riders are returning. Why? Two theories: It’s regular commuters trying to beat the price of gas OR it’s the #WFH folks, sick of being lonely and eager to rejoin the crowd. https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/bart-station-muni-caltrain-transit-22310378.php

"That pattern held for chief executives of Fortune 500 companies. Since we couldn’t directly measure the size of their egos, we measured factors that many previous studies have identified as reliable proxies for narcissism: the sizes of their pay packages, their signatures and their photos in their company reports. (No, the chief executives probably aren’t directly overseeing the page layout, but their underlings have to figure out what will and won’t please the boss.) Commanding outsize compensation and projecting an outsize image sends a message right out of Ron Burgundy’s playbook: I’m kind of a big deal. We found that the higher chief executives scored on this index, the more likely they were to seek power and status by becoming chairmen of their own companies and joining the boards of other companies. These were the chief executives who made the most negative statements about remote and hybrid work during the first two years of the pandemic.
The connection between narcissistic personality traits and wanting people in the office full time is not coincidental — it’s causal."
