We love that Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer can still be seen playing on Xbox and PC. This is one of our favorite things about him. How many hours does he work? Actually Play per-week
Amazingly, Spencer stated in this week’s Bloomberg interview that he somehow manages to squeeze 15 hours of Xbox into his seven-day work schedule, despite having a busy home life. Here’s the quote:
“I get to bed early so I can go to bed at 10. “I probably play 15 hours per week.”
How does he do this? As Spencer mentions later in the interview, he follows a routine where he turns off work as soon as he returns home… and of course, he probably plays games for work quite a bit!
“My transition zone is my little 15-minute commute to and from work… This is how I am very organized.”
Spencer mentioned, however, that the COVID pandemic caused Spencer to have to work from home. This affected his motivation and emotional well-being. He was also “pretty transparent” about this with those around him.
