The productivity of working from home: Evidence from Japan

I feel the opposite, productivity is poor or at best unpredictable when working from home.

There is a strong truth in looking at what motivates you though, for me it is just as much the interaction with colleagues working towards a common goal that is key. That goal is so much harder to accomplish in a WFH setting.

Other than that i very much agree that too many meetings is one of the biggest productivity killers.

I don't think any reasonable person will claim that office or WFH is universally better. Different strokes for different folks.

But IMO working from home did outline some inefficiencies in the office work that finally started getting more closely inspected (like the needless meetings).
