Baffled by Office 365 Groups? Join the club. As we’re all too aware, confused users mean meager adoption. This session will 1) cover what Groups are; 2) how to create and use Outlook Groups, Yammer Feeds, and Teams Chats; and 3) describe in detail how they’re all related (spoiler: they’re basically the same thing). Most importantly, you’ll pick up use cases that demonstrate when to use which, plus some concise infographics that will help translate this nebulous concept into concrete results. There’s no reason to reinvent the wheel: after this user-focused session, you’ll receive the slides so you can present your colleagues the same session—tailored to your culture—without much effort. Kill the chaos, then reap the benefits of an engaged organization.

Nate’s Take :
Matt Wade is a superstar when it comes to taking lots of info and condensing it into smart infographics and bite-size chunks for sharing. This session follows that trend, by comparing O365 groups in an understandable way that would be well-received by end users making decisions on which service best fits their needs. We’re not yet using Microsoft Teams so it was great to hear how it could very well be the next solution for many of our needs. Any groups decision starts by understanding your audience and their needs, then understanding your available tools and making an informed decision.
