If you’re like many people in the digital workforce, you’re working on several projects and with multiple collaborators at the same time. And the more projects and people you work with, the more that meetings, emails, messages and phone calls take up your time.

So how do you stay balanced and focused – and still get things done? Teams is the single hub for teamwork that brings together the communication and collaboration tools you use day in and day out, so you can get things done from virtually anywhere. Get more out of your day by getting more out of Microsoft Teams.

Here are just a few of the tips you’ll learn about:

  • Filter out the FYIs to see what’s most critical and time-sensitive. Just go to the Microsoft Teams Activity feed, select the funnel icon and filter for @mentions or responses to a message you sent.
  • Meet from practically anywhere with audio, video and chat in Microsoft Teams. And use the Blur my background tool to eliminate distractions, so the rest of your team stays focused.
  • Make creating a Microsoft Teams channel part of each project kickoff, so everyone involved has the latest info, messaging threads, files and tasks right from the start.
