What’s the Biggest Workplace Misconception You’ve Encountered?
Here are a few misconceptions that I heard from our set of colleagues
1. Work-life balance is a perk, not a necessity
2. You need to work long hours to be successful
3. Remote workers are less productive
4. Feedback is only needed during performance reviews
Now, I’d love to hear your experiences:
What workplace misconceptions have you encountered? And how do you challenge these myths in your organization?

So true! I think the biggest workplace misconception is that being busy equals being productive. Just because you're working long hours doesn't mean you're actually getting more done. In my experience, focused, intentional work in a reasonable timeframe leads to much better results than grinding away for 12+ hours a day. Quality > Quantity.

Many people fall into the trap of thinking that staying late or putting in longer hours will lead to better results, but in reality, it doesn’t necessarily equate to higher productivity.
