What successful meetings look like in SharePoint

  • When setting up a meeting in Microsoft Teams, set the agenda.
  • Set the recording to ‘on’ so that people who are not able to attend can watch it later. This also allows you to go back and catch something you missed.
  • Capture meeting notes on the fly. Multiple attendees can co-author notes in Teams in real-time.
  • Convert the meeting notes into action items and track them using Planner.
    • Assign owners to the action items
    • Assign due dates
    • Create sub-tasks
    • Track progress
  • Use real-time Co-authoring features to work on presentations and documents.
  • For recurring meetings, use the blocked/in-progress items from Planner as agenda items for the next meeting.

What makes Teams and OneDrive awesome for remote workers

  • Real-Time Co-authoring: multiple users are able to work on the same document.
  • Group Chatting: ability to chat with multiple users as well as individual users.
  • Audio/Video Connectivity: ability to have audio/video calls within Teams
  • Share: share documents with different users and get their insight.
  • Automatic Backups: all documents and data within Teams is automatically backed up.
  • Version History: no accidental overwrites, all the documents can be restored from the version history or from the recycle bin if deleted.
  • Ability to Chat within a Document: ability to chat from within a document and ask for comments from within the document.
  • Tabs within Teams: ability to have frequently used apps and websites list as tabs within the team for easy access.
  • Access Anywhere / Any Device: all data resides on the server, so you can log in from any devices and still have access to all your data.
