Logitech’s Siddhartha Chakraborty shares insights on designing seamless, human-centered work experiences at GoveTech 2025.
The way we work and where we work has undergone a seismic shift. Offices have become optional, coffee shops and kitchen counters have turned into boardrooms, and hybrid work is no longer an exception. It is a global norm.
With these changes comes the fundamental challenge of how we make this new world of work functional, seamless, and human-centered?
This is the question Siddhartha Chakraborty, Head of B2B Category for Emerging Markets at Logitech, set out to address in the panel The New Logic of Work at the GovTech Conclave 2025. In his keynote, Chakraborty unpacked the real workplace dilemmas companies face today—from clunky tech experiences to fractured collaboration in hybrid settings—and how Logitech is trying to solve them through user-first, sustainable, and AI-powered design.
Drawing on both data and lived experience, Chakraborty made the case that “work is a thing we do,” not just a place we go. And to support that, organizations need to create environments—physical, digital, or hybrid—that make employees want to show up, connect, and contribute.
Key takeaways:
- The workplace has become boundaryless, encompassing everything from traditional offices to coffee shops and kiosks. Tools must be designed for this fluid reality—adaptable, human-centered, and built to prioritize collaboration, simplicity, and ease of deployment.
- Collaboration needs vary and tech must flex accordingly. From quick, Gen Z-style meetings to emotionally driven executive sessions, one size doesn’t fit all. Solutions must accommodate diverse environments and interaction styles, with AI-powered features enhancing smarter, more intuitive collaboration.
- With a strong emphasis on reducing carbon emissions, the future of work calls for environmentally conscious choices and minimalistic design. Simplicity in the user experience and deployment is key to ensuring technology support.
