The iPhone cannot connect to the Internet through it's cable the only way to do it is via Wi-Fi through your laptop this is the process that he was explaining.
m not sure whether it will work for wired lan
While your Network at work is wired and thus off-limits to the iPhone 9due to connection limitations) you can use your laptop to create an wireless access point thus giving the iPhone a way in.
The process described in the link is the only setup possible with you current hardware to be able to do this.
If you are having trouble setting this up my recommendation would be to just invest in a Wi-Fi router (or get your work to), you can get them for very little cost and they will save you from having to play around with network settings and quite possibly compromising your work's network security.
You could get anything from a USB dongle style to an AirPort Express or even An AirPort Extreme base Station (just to name Apple's products that will work with this)
This would greatly simplify your task for you
otherwise if you still want to use the hardware you have available to you i would recommend hopping onto Microsofts discussion forum and ask about creating a Wireless access point with your Laptop as they would be better suited to answer those questions since they are Microsoft related. That link unfortunatley is the best laid out and informative one i know of without me writing one up myself.
I feel that what you are really trying to acheive is a mixed network topology system in a Multiple star network layout (which is similar to what i run at home but mines more of a mesh architecture).
With Wired and Wi-Fi options both integrated and the best way to acheive this is with a Wi-Fi router
(wish you could draw diagrams for usage on here would make life a lot easier 😉 )
