We wanted to learn more about people’s experiences, so we asked HBR’s global social media community: How did your work change this year? For many of our readers, their job transformed; for example, AI changed the nature of getting tasks done. For others, this year shifted their relationshiptowork, leadership, productivity, and purpose. In total, three major themes stood out: AI adoption (out of 109 respondents, 27.5% of them mentioned AI in some capacity); the importance of people and purpose; and major disruptions like layoffs, funding cuts, or career pivots.
