So if Sarah wants me to make some changes to something, then I would work in here. Here I've got some minutes and I'll also upload an Excel file here, and this would be all of our different working files and this is where we would work from. The neat thing with Teams, though, is that if we make any edits, I don't have to leave Teams, so if I want to make a change to anything, I upload it and I could upload. Now I would do is I would go over to Teams and I would upload it into Teams and this is where we would work. If there's any other files, then we just make sure that we save those files and upload them to our team. We're working off the exact same copy, the two of us. I upload it and then what this is, is this is Sarah and I working inside of a team together, but we're working off the same copy. Of course, I got to go find this thing and again.

This is where we work, so this is where I would upload that presentation that I downloaded from Sarah.

We create this team and it's called Teams Training, and Sarah and I can have a conversation back and forth. The same idea, right? What we do is we create a team, Sarah and I. This is where Microsoft Teams is a little bit different. And if anybody else needs a copy of this, again, they've got to rely on Sarah and myself as far as who's got the original copy, the good copy. If anybody else needs this presentation, then Sarah and I have to figure out which is the good copy, which is the most recent copy, and the whole time your inbox is filling up with all these different attachments. Right? Sarah makes some changes, emails it back to me, and so what do I do? I open it up and I save yet another copy.

Already it's starting to get a little confusing, and the problem with that is that a lot of times we don't end up cleaning up these copies, so I save another copy of it. Right? And I give her a copy, so now she's got two copies. Plus, of course, I'll save a version of it, right? So now I've got two copies. Then what I do is I download this thing, so Sarah has a copy, right? I download a copy of this, and now I have a copy and Sarah's got a copy, so if I make any changes to it, I've got to email this back to Sarah. See, Sarah sends me this email here and if I have to refer back to the email, then I've got to go back to my inbox and take a look at the email, and first find Sarah's email and find the attachment. This is a perfect example of how a lot of us currently work, and that's actually a bit of a problem. Here's an email that Sarah sent me with some slides for Microsoft Teams. I want to welcome you to today's webinar, Manage Your Time And team With Microsoft Teams.Ī lot of people ask what Microsoft Teams is and how it's used and, of course, what to use it for, so let me take a bit of a step back and talk about how you currently work. Currently a lot of us depend quite a bit on email, right? This stuff.
