Want Your Team Back in the Office? Start with the Mailroom.
In the debut episode of BearTracks’ CEO podcast, Leadership with a Purpose, Faine Esposito (Global Manager of Business Development, The Millennium Group) dives into a question every leader's been asking: What actually brings employees back to the office?
The conversation unpacks something we often overlook: when the office just works—processes are smooth, systems are in sync, and you’re not wasting time chasing packages or paper—people want to be there. They connect more, they collaborate better, and yes, they actually like being in the office.
It’s a refreshing take in a world obsessed with remote vs. hybrid debates. Because sometimes, it’s not about policy, it’s about the everyday experience. And one space quietly shaping that experience: The mailroom.
The Daily Friction No One Notices Until It Slows Everything Down
Imagine someone popping into the office just to see if a package arrived. Another employee misses a legal document because it sat, unlogged for three days. Someone else starts forwarding everything to their home address to “avoid the hassle.”
None of these moments grab attention. But collectively? They affect trust, time, and how often people want to show up.
Mailroom Automation Changes That
It’s fundamental operational fixes like these that quietly transform office life reducing friction, improving accountability, and encouraging people to return with confidence.

According to the 2024 Flex Index report, structured hybrid work is now the standard, with most companies expecting 2–3 in-office days per week. But where employees choose to spend those days often comes down to how well the office works for them.
When systems like mail and package delivery are efficient, secure, and seamless, the workplace feels frictionless. Productivity improves. Engagement rises. And office culture begins to thrive again.
