, Introduction
In the organisational context, remote work is referred to as a business practice where the workers
access communication technologies and digital tools to perform tasks of the job from a remote
location (Ozimek, 2020). In remote work, the workers do not perform job activities from the
traditional office. Workers are allowed to work from various remote locations like home and
other non-office locations. In nature, accessibility and flexibility are fostered by remote work. In
general terms, for decades remote work business practice has been around. However, widespread
popularity was gained by remote work in the late 20th century due to the influence of digital
technology advancement and the internet. In addition, Covid-19 turned remote work into a
current trend for business organisations. During the pandemic, various nations of the world
declared lockdowns to restrict social distancing and foster isolation (Allen, 2022). Therefore,
organisational workers are restricted to working from traditional offices so that social distancing
can be promoted. To deal with the situation different organisations of the world adopted remote
work business practices so that workers could work from home and less impact could be ensured
on the organisational operations.
In this report, the researcher will analyse remote work strategies and the critical case study of
Microsoft will be adopted to prepare the study. The researcher will define the remote work
strategies of Microsoft and will address the strengths and weaknesses of the strategies. Theories
and models of HRM and OB related to remote work will be determined and explored by the
report. In addition, the report will critically analyse the remote work strategies of Microsoft
strategy at the individual, group, and strategic levels. Finally, a critical reflection will be carried
out to determine the way the researcher's understanding of managing, leading, and resourcing for
improved remote working has been shaped after preparing the study.
