In the final episode of the season, WorkLab host Elise Hu is joined by correspondents Mary Melton and Desmond Dickerson for a discussion on the most impactful trends of the past year. In the wide-ranging conversation, they discuss topics like the importance of flexibility, the rise of the creator economy, and something called “the leaf blower problem.”
Elise and Mary and Desmond present highlights from their interviews with the experts and executives who joined us during our first season—people like LinkedIn Editor in Chief Dan Roth, NeuroLeadership Institute Co-founder and CEO Dr. David Rock, author Anne Helen Petersen, and Dr. Clare Purvis, senior director of behavioral science at Headspace.
WorkLab is a place for experts to share their insights and opinions. As students of the future of work, Microsoft values inputs from a diverse set of voices. That said, the opinions and findings of the experts we interview are their own and do not reflect Microsoft’s own research or positions.
