From Remote Work to Work Ethic: Leaders’ Toughest Questions in 2025

This week’s episode flips the script—our own team is in the hot seat. In this special Q&A edition of The Great Retention, Kamber is joined by GPS’s own Director of Operations, Jade Fountain, to answer the real questions we’ve received from business leaders and team members in 2025. Together, they tackle why hybrid work remains the top choice across generations and why return-to-office mandates are often misused as fixes for deeper cultural issues. They also explore how leaders can embrace employees as whole people, play to their strengths, and build cultures that stick. The conversation digs into succession planning and reverse mentorship, offering a fresh take on how knowledge can flow both ways across generations. This episode brings you straight into the questions shaping today’s workplace—it’s a conversation you don’t want to miss.
