RTO: making it work—for your people and your bottom line.

Written by Pippa Peterson | Mar 30, 2025 1:00:00 PM

For many companies, return-to-office remains an open question—how do you balance the need for flexibility with pressure to control costs? How do you support your people and make smart real estate decisions?

The traditional office model isn’t built for this moment. Long-term leases. Underused space. A workforce that expects more freedom. And yet, a rigid return to HQ doesn’t make sense either.

This guide offers a smarter path forward.

We break down today’s full spectrum of workspace models—headquarters, managed offices, hub-and-spoke, on-demand options—and explore how leading enterprises are using them to reduce costs, boost engagement, and build resilience.

You’ll also get a proven Workplace Optimization Framework, practical tech stack recommendations, and real-world lessons from companies that have already made flexible work work.

If you’re navigating RTO, this is your playbook.
