How work life has changed as more workers return to offices

Season 2025 Episode 46 | 4m 40s

The era of the remote worker is winding down. Before a mandate for federal workers to return to the office made national headlines, dozens of major private sector companies across the U.S. implemented hybrid policies. Ali Rogin speaks with Pamela Eyring, president of The Protocol School of Washington, about why back to the office may not immediately mean back to normal.
