Announcing Open To Work: How To Get Ahead In The Age Of AI
Microsoft, Tuesday, January 13th, 2026
The work we do, and the way we do it, is always changing. Each of us has a memory of how we once did a task regularly, the tools we used and how both the task and the tools have since changed so much they are nearly unrecognizable.
Because we are living and working in the 'now,' change feels both personal and fast, so it is always worth remembering that this has happened before, maybe not in just this way or with this speed.
And it is true. AI is rewriting work. How we do our jobs. How roles change. How careers are built. The skills we need. Some of that is exciting. Some of it can feel overwhelming. What we remember and have learned from previous times is that in moments like this, people are open to work and don't just need new tools. They need a new mindset, a clearer understanding of what's changing and a path forward.
