Microsoft's vision of the 'New World of Work' asserts that information work technologies can also help organizations achieve the long promised benefits of virtualization and decentralization. Businesses will be able to adopt business models that include a global workforce that can be managed irrespective of physical location, giving remote, mobile, and temporary workers the access to information resources—and the same management oversight and expectations—experienced by workers operating under more traditional arrangements. People will have far greater opportunities to balance work and life priorities while regaining time lost to commuting and unproductive communication tasks. This shift, in turn, will allow them to focus on the tasks that will help them accomplish their goals and those of their organizations. Microsoft can provide low cost, familiar tools for distributed collaboration and communication as a part of a Dynamic Work initiative.
