Microsoft to take you to office via virtual commute in Teams
As the pandemic takes its toll on the well-being of workers
globally, Microsoft has
announced a unique feature in its video meet app Teams which will take you to
office as you used to before the work-from-home scenario, virtually though.
Called
'Virtual Commute', the upcoming feature in Teams will let you create mental
bookends for your remote workday and make it easier to productively start and
mindfully end the workday.
"We're
also excited to share that we are partnering with Headspace to bring a curated
set of mindfulness experiences and science-backed meditations into the flow of
your work in Teams," the company announced during its 'Microsoft Ignite
2020' conference on Tuesday.
"Think
about what we were going into in the day and think about clearing up what we
are coming out of in a day. And so this virtual commute experience allows you
to take a step back, again going into and coming out of your day to just
organise your thoughts and to make sure you're really processing, doing some
pre- and post-processing of your work," explained Jared Spataro, corporate
vice president, Microsoft 365.
