  + stars: | 2023-05-24 | by ( Ashley Stewart | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
One exec explained a reason for the change is "wanting to invest in the AI wave." A Microsoft executive said a reason behind the company's decision to halt raises and cut bonuses and stock awards this year is "wanting to invest in the AI wave," an internal message viewed by Insider read. "The most important lever for almost all our employees' compensation upside is the stock price," Capossela wrote in the message. Some Microsoft employees have been vocal about the blow to morale from pay changes and recent layoffs, saying in internal messages directed at executives and viewed by Insider. That might be true if we were a private company perhaps like a private law firm, but for publicly traded companies like Microsoft, investors become a critical stakeholder.

☆ Microsoft exec: My 2-step rule for having hard conversations at work
  + stars: | 2022-09-18 | by ( Morgan Smith | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
All of us have had to — or will — deal with a frustrating work situation at some point in our careers, whether it's a loud deskmate, an unproductive meeting or a project that went off the rails. There's a better approach to handling difficult conversations at work, Chris Capossela, Microsoft's chief marketing officer, argues — and it starts with clear, confident communication. Capossela has spent his 31-year career at Microsoft mastering the art of communication, even serving as a speechwriter for then-CEO Bill Gates between 1997 and 1999. Before Capossela initiates or participates in a difficult work conversation, he starts with an email. I'd love to meet with you and hear your thoughts on what those steps might look like.
