I had the chance to learn alongside Microsoft Student Ambassadors in Singapore today. Conversations like these are a powerful reminder that the most important insights about AI don’t just come to students, they come from them. Together with the Minister for Education, Dr. Janil Puthucheary, we announced free Microsoft 365 Copilot for more than 200,000 students across Singapore’s universities and colleges. This is the generation that will put AI to work — and help define how it’s used.

Change in the workplace is nothing new, but the pace and scale we’re experiencing today is unprecedented. With the launch of "Open to Work: How to Get Ahead in the Age of AI," Ryan Roslansky and Aneesh Raman invite us to pause and consider: What lessons from past transformations can guide us now? The book draws on expert insights and global data to help professionals and leaders alike understand not just what’s changing, but how to respond with clarity and confidence. At Microsoft and LinkedIn, we believe that when people lead with curiosity and purpose, technology becomes a tool progress—not just productivity. https://lnkd.in/gVd6xGPS

Excited to see Open to Work from my colleagues Ryan and Aneesh out in the world. Ryan told me months ago he wanted to write a book to help people navigate this moment of profound change and thrive as AI reshapes how work gets done. I can’t think of two people better suited to write it. It’s a great guide for anyone trying to make sense of work right now.
Today is the day - Open to Work is officially available! https://lnkd.in/gDqY5Bna Aneesh and I are excited to share it with the world. But more than anything, today is about gratitude. Gratitude for every past, present and future employee at LinkedIn and Microsoft who show up every day to create economic opportunity for the global workforce and to empower every person and organization in the world to achieve more. While that’s always true, it is especially true in moments of big change, when we all feel an extra responsibility to help professionals connect, learn, work, and grow in new ways, together. Gratitude for the members and experts who helped us tell this story. Who helped us show that no matter where you live or what you do, no matter what kind of job title you hold or what kind of career trajectory you’re on, this story belongs to you. Gratitude for the people - and the purpose - that made this book possible. Thank you.

Open to Work comes out today, and it captures a tension I see across teams right now. AI is showing up everywhere in our work, but a lot of people are still hesitating to fully engage with it. That’s what makes this book so relevant and timely. It’s grounded in what people are experiencing and focuses on building real AI literacy as a day-to-day skill. In practice, it looks like using these tools to learn faster, explore ideas more deeply, and approach problems from different angles, while building the judgment to know what to trust and what to challenge. That balance is quickly becoming a core skill. Congrats to Ryan and Aneesh on the launch. This will help a lot of people take their next step in building their AI skills.

A few weeks ago, I sat down with Ryan Roslansky for a conversation about work, leadership, and how people are feeling in this moment of rapid transformation. One thing that became clear to me is how much uncertainty people are feeling about their careers right now. That uncertainty shows up everywhere, but marketers feel it in a very particular way. AI has lowered the cost of producing more content, more quickly. It has not lowered the cost of good judgment, clarity, or taste. That's where the real advantage is now. The advantage is no longer about making more things faster. It is about deciding what should exist at all. That is why Open to Work: How to Get Ahead in the Age of AI, co-authored by Ryan and Aneesh Raman is timely. It is not a prediction about how work will change. It is a reminder that the future is still being shaped, and that people have more agency than they think. With the right framing, uncertainty does not have to lead to paralysis. It can become a way to learn, adapt, and move forward. In our conversation, Ryan talked about the importance of shortening the distance between intent and impact. For marketers, that idea is very real. Our work is not about simply producing assets. It is about helping teams make better decisions, helping customers make sense of complexity, and being clear about what truly matters in the market. Ryan shared more of his thinking behind Open to Work here: https://aka.ms/AA1098w8 Congratulations to Ryan and Aneesh on the launch.

Today, Open to Work is finally actually out in the world! Getting here took Ryan Roslansky and I nearly two years of debating the ideas, researching the insights, and interviewing the experts. But the best parts of this book - the parts that make the book the book - come from members just like you. Members like Ume Habiba, JONETTA GRESHAM,Paul Cheek, Anne-Marie Slaughter, Neil Pretty, Taj English, Vivienne Ming, Joséphine Goube, Ethan Evans, Byron Auguste, Kate Kallot, Maria Flynn, Vivek Seshadri, Maria Anguiano, Nilofer Merchant, Nickle LaMoreaux, Tess Gilman Posner, Diego Rubio, Diego Arambula, John Henry, Leena Nair, Scott Galloway, Barbara Corcoran and more. All of the stories in the book are about people who pushed past the understandable fear and anxiety so many workers are feeling to not just engage with these new tools but also to realize their unique experience is their most competitive edge. That's what this book is about. I hope it finds you at exactly the right moment. Get yours here: linkedin.com/opentowork #OpenToWorkBook
