Microsoft Teams help employees come together and collaborate on projects. Working with Teams will increase employee productivity as it serves as a platform for interactive knowledge sharing sessions, crucial discussions, telemeetings and more. The following pointers will highlight the best ways to get the most out of Teams in your organization.
- Before you roll out Teams, identify your purpose for deploying Teams, its structure and the people who will use it.
- Create a limited number of teams, initially, for the early adopters. This will help your employees get a good grasp on how Microsoft Teams works. Any new member added thereon, will be able to access all the discussed conversations and files shared since the inception of the team.
- Name your teams, channels and chats and maintain a structure.
- Adding descriptions will help members understand the goal of a particular team or channel.
- Instead of creating different teams with the same set of members, create multiple channels within a team. You can have separate channels for discussions, feedback, announcements, help desk support and more. Leadership staffs can also create private channels within the team to carry out focused discussions.
- The General channel is created automatically when you create a team. This channel cannot be renamed or deleted. You can use this channel to share an overview of the team's purpose, common files and more.
- Leverage the moderation feature to determine who can create posts, reply to them and more.
