For Microsoft researchers, COVID-19 was a call to action. The reimagining of work practices had long been an area of study, but existing and new questions that needed immediate answers surfaced as companies and their employees quickly adjusted to significantly different working conditions. Teams from across the Microsoft organizational chart pooled their unique expertise together under The New Future of Work<\/em> initiative. The results have informed product features designed to better support remote work and are now being used to help companies, including Microsoft, usher their workforces into a future of hybrid work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this episode of The New Future of Work<\/em> series, Chief Scientist Jaime Teevan<\/a> and Senior Principal Researcher Siddharth Suri<\/a> explore the many ways people were impacted by work shifts during the COVID-19 pandemic.
