Zoom, the videoconferencing platform that profited substantially from remote work during the pandemic, is now asking employees to return to the office. Its CEO, Eric Yuan, claims Zoom meetings don’t let people build trust or be innovative.

Yuan explained that trust is essential “for everything,” and he finds it hard to build not only that but also innovation and debates over Zoom.
“Quite often, you come up with great ideas, but when we are all on Zoom, it’s really hard,” Yuan said, according to Insider. “We cannot have a great conversation. We cannot debate each other well because everyone tends to be very friendly when you join a Zoom call.”
Her, personally, cannot handle remote communication methods and is projecting his inability onto everyone else. People that make it to CEO if large companies are used to in person communication without any possible recording of their behavior as they berate coworkers.
He is complaining about everyone being nice on zoom. He wants to not be nice.
You sleuthed it out, Holmes!
