Yellow triangle with exclamation point by my name - what does it really mean?

I have a fairly new laptop, running Windows 8.1 and i have Microsoft Office Home and Business 2013 installed and activated. When I open Microsoft Word, I see this warning triangle by my name. When I click on it, i see "There are problems with your account. Please sign in again." I don't understand what i need to sign in to. I'm not using any cloud services. I have Microsoft Office Home and Business 2013 physically installed on my laptop. I would think that all i need to do is open Microsoft Word and start typing. When I click on the little "sign in" link in the yellow box, nothing happens. Is there really some compelling reason to make all of this so difficult?
It's a stupid setup, buy there is no need to worry about it; simply ignore the triangle. Office 2013 will keep on running.
