"Although there are challenges … we are confident that we can adapt so that we can continue developing the tools and products that empower every person and organization on the planet to achieve more." – Mark Powers

The current Remote Work era has forced us to redefine what it’ll look like when many of us are allowed to work from the office again. When that time comes, what can we expect when we return to our offices? Can we expect our work schedules to be the same? Can we look forward to having face-to-face conversations with our colleagues again?

In this week’s episode, we are joined by Mark Powers and Jasminder Thind from Microsoft’s Workplace Intelligence Group. By looking at the work habits of those returning to work in China, Mark and Jasminder are able to offer us some insight as to what the return to work may look like in other parts of the world. The data collected can give us hope to look forward to better communication, balanced working hours, and a continued focus, as we look forward in transitioning back to work.
