For many of us, the way we work is broken. But the combined power of humans and AI offers a potential solution. At The Work Innovation Summit, we explored the potential for AI to transform the way we work. The event highlighted the magic that unfolds when AI—rather than adding to the work pile—alleviates repetitive tasks and allows humans to channel their ingenuity, empathy, and passion into purposeful, meaningful work.
There are so many different communication tools, yet when it comes to work, email is usually inevitable. That’s OK—we can help you work smarter by integrating your email workflow with your Asana workflow. Here are four easy ways to do it.
In this thrilling era of artificial intelligence (AI), we’re not just witnessing a technological evolution; we’re at the brink of a human revolution. The promise of AI is dazzling, offering gains in efficiency and productivity. But too many leaders are racing towards a future without giving enough thought to change management in the AI era.
In the race to implement new and cutting-edge AI tools, many organizations are overlooking a crucial component—the humans that use them. To get the most out of AI, employees need to be able to engage with it first. This concept is what we call "human-centric AI"—the idea that AI should be a partner to employees, not a replacement.
Use Asana’s smart editor feature to automatically adjust and improve your writing. You can even specify the level of detail you want to include and the tone you want to strike.

These time-saving tips can help you intelligently eliminate busywork and make a greater impact, faster.
More collaboration isn’t always better. In fact, research from The Work Innovation Lab, a think tank by Asana, shows that too much collaboration can actually hold workers back. In a survey of over 1,500 workers, 29% of leaders said that the expectations put on employees to collaborate prevented them from completing their work. But while too much collaboration is bad, teams still need to work together to achieve business goals.
Operations teams face unique challenges when it comes to collaborating cross-functionally. Amanda Howell, the Director, Portfolio Management & PMO, Internet, at T-Mobile, saw this firsthand when managing programs like the launch of T-Mobile’s High Speed Internet. We recently sat down with Amanda to get her strategies for leveraging Asana’s work management platform to drive operational efficiencies, work smarter, and ultimately, achieve goals.
