StanChart CEO Resists Office Mandates: ‘We Work With Adults’

Standard Chartered Plc’s Chief Executive Officer Bill Winters said he still sees no need to hand down orders to force senior bankers to be in the office more, even as rival banks get tougher on their employees.

“We work with adults,” said Winters, speaking in a Bloomberg Television interview on Thursday. “The adults can have an adult conversation with other adults and decide how they’re going to best manage their team.”
