Our Priorities
Our Priorities Reflect Today's Most Pressing Issues
Our priorities support our goals and guide Microsoft's response to today's most pressing economic, social, and environmental issues.
Technology Innovation
Innovation is core to our business success and central to the advancement of society. We collaborate with universities, governments, industry partners, and non-profit organizations to foster innovation and unleash the transformative power of technology.
Workforce Development
Technology skills are an increasingly common requirement in the modern workplace, and a well-trained workforce is important for ambitious and growing economies everywhere. We work with hundreds of thousands of people—both those with jobs and those seeking employment, to acquire the IT skills, training, and certification they need needed to advance in the workplace.
Jobs & Opportunity
Technology supports a knowledge economy which is enormously effective in creating jobs and economic opportunity. Not only does our technology improve productivity and efficiency, our business supports employment for the millions of people around the world that develop, market, retail, and service our products and services.
Leadership in Sustainable Business Practices
Sustainable and responsible business practices are important to our shareholders, employees, customers, partners and all stakeholders. Our corporate citizenship team works across our organization to understand and monitor the social and environmental impacts of our operations. We know that the way we work is as important as the great work we do.
