00:00:15
with your team in Microsoft TEAMS! These days, we are all
00:00:19
confined for a longer period of time and we all need to
00:00:23
know how to TELEWORK.
00:00:26
So... In this session.
00:00:28
We are going to see how to start 1 on 1 chats...
00:00:34
How to move from one on one chat to a group chat, for instance...
00:00:38
And move from a chat to instant webconferencing... Then we're going
00:00:43
to see how to start a team chat from the appropriate channel. We
00:00:48
can make video or audio calls.
00:00:53
And then we can hear our voicemail messages under the "Calls"
00:00:56
tab. There we will be able to organize our contact list. We
00:01:01
can also add our contact to speed dials and create new
00:01:05
groups of contact lists from that interface itself. The
00:01:09
objectives today are to really get started with TEAMS
00:01:14
by finding out how to communicate efficiently in this
00:01:16
new workspace. The whole idea is to grasp how
00:01:20
powerful this tool can be, but at the same time knowing
00:01:27
that it is user-friendly.
00:01:30
Let's begin!
00:01:32
Once you've launched Microsoft TEAMS from your
00:01:34
Start Menu, you will find it right here by Alpha Order.
00:01:40
So I have it already opened.
00:01:43
On this interface, remember your Profile appears on the top

00:01:46
right. You always make sure your availability status is set
00:01:50
correctly. This is why the good practice would be always to fill
00:01:55
your calendar on a daily basis with events, and meetings if
00:01:59
needed. Your status is automatically changed based on
00:02:03
what your calendar shows. Otherwise you also have the
00:02:07
option to change your status
00:02:09
manually. If you don't want to receive any calls or
00:02:13
notifications, you will select "Do not disturb"... If you want
00:02:16
to personalize your message as to why you don't want to
00:02:19
be disturbed, you can set a status message, here.
00:02:24
So... Because you're working remotely, it is very important to let your
00:02:29
colleagues know when you're approachable... Also regarding your
00:02:34
messages... When you get
00:02:36
notifications, you got to react to those messages so they have
00:02:41
an idea that you read the messages by showing a "Like", for
00:02:44
instance... Or whether you disliked something... Just show your
00:02:47
reaction. Also use the "Stickers" and "Emojis"... Now, to start a chat...

00:02:54
There are different ways to start a chat... Either from the
00:02:57
"Search bar"... And there, you would just type the "name" of a
00:03:00
colleague, for instance... And then once you've located a colleague:
00:03:04
"Lisa", you click on her name. It will lead to the conversation
00:03:09
thread. So once I'm on the conversation thread with "Lisa", I
00:03:15
can just plainly say "Hi, Lisa...
00:03:19
...Are you ready for a screen share?"
00:03:29
So "Lisa" is supposed to respond back. Maybe, she says "Yes".
00:03:35
And then my next step would be to go to the top right. You see...
00:03:39
You have your three to four little icons... The purple ones,
00:03:43
they lead automatically to the "Black Chamber" which is the
00:03:46
virtual conference room...
00:03:50
Your videoconferencing room... And when you press here, the "plus"

00:03:55
button is to switch from a "One on One" chat to a "Group" chat. So
00:03:58
when you click on this button...
00:04:01
You will have to add the name of additional people... So, let's say...
00:04:05
I want to invite "Philippe" into
00:04:06
this conversation. I click on his name. I can add more
00:04:10
than one person. Of course, let me try somebody else.
00:04:14
How about "Laurent"?
00:04:17
There you go... So just like that... I've added two more people to
00:04:22
this conversation... When I press
00:04:24
"Add". You see that "Lisa"'s profile picture has been fused into
00:04:30
"Oliver Lodge"'s. Everybody's "Avatars" have been fused into one.
00:04:35
The names of the people appear here. Obviously this combination
00:04:38
of persons have never been used before... So I can personalize a
00:04:42
conversation by going to the pencil, here... And give it a name...
00:04:47
Maybe this group chat is called
00:04:49
"Project...
00:04:54
GAMMA".
00:05:00
And I press "Save"... And just like that, I personalized my "Group"
00:05:04
chat. Now, whether it was a "1 on 1" chat or a "Group" chat, I

00:05:08
have the possibility at all times to start a "video" call... An
00:05:12
"Audio" call or "Screen Sharing"... "Screen Sharing" can be done with
00:05:17
"sound" or without "sound". First you have to decide if you're
00:05:21
going to launch "Screen Sharing". If you're working with two
00:05:24
screens... like I am today.
00:05:28
I have "Screen #1" or "Screen #2" as a choice... So, I can pick either
00:05:32
one, but if I have sensitive material showing on both
00:05:35
desktops... Maybe, I would prefer to share a window instead... So, I have
00:05:41
a browser that is open... "Google Chrome"... I could click on that if
00:05:45
I wanted to share a PowerPoint presentation... It will show me
00:05:47
the most recent PowerPoints, here.
00:05:50
Now, this is one way... Now, from the bottom here... by saying: "Hi...

00:05:57
To group GAMMA"... Let's say...
00:06:01
It's a "Group" chat...
00:06:04
I have the option of going to that chat by hovering, here...
00:06:08
Everybody should always react. So either you're "angry"...
00:06:13
"Scared"... Just show your reaction! People don't see you... On the "Three
00:06:17
little dots", here. If I forgot to write something, I have the option
00:06:21
to "Edit" or "Delete" my message.
00:06:23
So, you have different actions.. And I invite you to try each one
00:06:28
of them... So remember, just hover over the message...
00:06:32
On the top right you got the three little dots to see more
00:06:35
actions. If you want to just choose an "Emoji", you can do it
00:06:38
right from here. Now, if you want to write something more

00:06:43
formal, remember the "A" with the little pen... This is for
00:06:47
formatting... So, here... You'll be able to put a topic to the
00:06:51
conversation... Always a good practice!
00:06:53
Maybe, you want to write "Gamma Follow up"...
00:07:00
And remember, you can enrich your text... You can make it "Bold"...
00:07:04
"Italic"... And "Highlight" with a color and so on. If you want to
00:07:07
make a list... I'm typing anything... Just to show you...
00:07:11
I remove the formatting... I can increase indentation and turn
00:07:16
this text into "Bulleted List" or "Numbered List" and I have more
00:07:20
options by going here... This is just to show you the many things
00:07:24
you can do in a conversation... So, I'm having a "Group" chat... And from

00:07:29
a "Group" chat, I can go and plan a meeting directly from here...
00:07:38
But if, let's say... I want to, uhm...
00:07:45
Go to webconferencing... Remember, I can start with a "Video" or just
00:07:49
an "Audio" and then switch it to "video" mode... It doesn't matter... If I launch
00:07:52
an "Audio" call, it leads me to this
00:07:53
room... Noone is available... It will ask me to leave a message... But
00:08:00
this is the black chamber... So I get straight, here... And I have
00:08:04
different tools that I can use... I can also do a share screen
00:08:06
from this window, here... Either share a "Desktop", "Window",
00:08:11
"PowerPoint", or a "Whiteboard"... And if I have a PowerPoint
00:08:15
presentation with audio and video, I can also "Include
00:08:17
system audio" prior to launching that PowerPoint presentation.
00:08:23
Let me hang up!
00:08:29
So like that... I'm back to the
00:08:32
conversation thread... So, we've seen
00:08:37
that We can also start a conversation from a team..

00:08:42
A team "Channel"... The way to do so, would be by clicking on
00:08:46
the "Teams" tab... Remember in "Telework 1"... We've
00:08:50
created a team called "NewPT" "New Private Team", right here...
00:08:54
And there was an automatic channel created... Called
00:08:57
"General"... And then, the "Private" channel. So, if I choose to
00:09:00
have a conversation with the entire team, I should click
00:09:03
on the "General" channel first.
00:09:06
Then, I can go to the "Posts" tab which is there by default.
00:09:13
I know I'm having a conversation with the "General" channel because
00:09:15
it appears also on top, here. So... At the bottom here, I will say "Hi...
00:09:22
to All general"...
00:09:25
But I could also start a

00:09:31
conversation with all of them to say, um... "This is to announce
00:09:39
a new procedure..."
00:09:44
But I write "@mention" Lisa... This way I call
00:09:49
"Lisa"'s attention to add a file, for instance... "... but Lisa must add
00:09:57
the file to this conversation thread"...
00:10:04
So what's going to happen with this message?... You can see that "Lisa
00:10:07
Elliott"'s name appears in "purple" with a "link". That means she has
00:10:11
received a notification and this notification appears on the
00:10:15
"Banner" with that little "Red" tag and a "number"... So, she will see the
00:10:19
notification under the "Activity" tab... She will click on that... It
00:10:22
will take her right to that conversation thread... And she
00:10:26
will know to add a file to this conversation thread. So this is
00:10:30
how I can get the attention of one member in particular...
00:10:35
In a channel... Because remember... In this team, there are four members...
00:10:39
And when I addressed the message... It's a post... So, I'm
00:10:42
addressing everyone in the channel... But if I wish to call
00:10:44
"Lisa"'s attention or any other colleagues... I have to do the
00:10:48
"@mention"... You know the "@"sign you see on an email
00:10:51
address... And then, type in the first letters of the name... And
00:10:56
then click on the name... And it will appear as such.
00:11:01
So, this is how I can "@mention" somebody... Now, notifications... Like
00:11:06
I said... Will appear in "Red" on the "Banner"... You can get a
00:11:09
notification in "Activity"... Then
00:11:11
"Chat"... And "Teams"... Also...
00:11:16
You have the possibility to go to the "Chat" tab and filter your

00:11:22
conversations... so when you click on "Chat" you will notice you are
00:11:26
under the recent
00:11:27
section. You can see the entire conversation history.
00:11:36
The most recent one appears on top, the oldest at the bottom.
00:11:39
So you can scroll up and down conversations... When you click on
00:11:44
any conversation, you will see the content on the right. So,
00:11:48
"Project GAMMA" was my last conversation... By doing a right-
00:11:52
click on a conversation, I can pop out a chat.
00:11:56
If I want to have two conversations at the same
00:11:58
time, this is what I will use to pop out a chat.
00:12:02
I can mark it as unread So, let me click on "Mark as read"...
00:12:07
And I can pin it..."Pin it to the top"... So, this way I
00:12:10
can find this conversation easily and when I'm done, I can
00:12:14
go again on the "Three little dots"... "Mark as read" and also
00:12:19
"Unpin" it when I'm done.
00:12:23
You also have a different type
00:12:24
of filter... Still, under the "Chat" tab... Under the "Recent"... I go, here.
00:12:32
And I have the advanced filter... So, I can either locate something
00:12:37
by "keyword"... by typing "Y Y Y"... I locate 3 conversations...
00:12:43
With the key term "Y Y Y"...
00:12:46
Now, if I delete this and instead go to the "Three
00:12:49
little dots", I can instead look at all my unread
00:12:52
messages...
00:12:54
I could undo this filter and instead, locate all my ad hoc
00:12:59
meetings. Always the most recent on top and the oldest at the bottom.
00:13:03
00:13:04.230 --> 00:13:08.380 So, this is how you can filter your chats!
00:13:08
Now any notifications like Let's say... I'm going to go back

00:13:12
to the entire conversation history... If I want to look at a
00:13:17
conversation with Lisa... Right- click... You see... You can "Mute" a
00:13:22
conversation. That means you no longer want to get
00:13:24
notifications from this conversation.
00:13:29
And also the other possibility you have... You see that "Lisa" is
00:13:33
off network, right now... I can also get a notification when
00:13:37
she's available again... So, I will know when to approach her... That
00:13:40
could be very practical! The other thing is if you want to

00:13:44
adjust your notifications, you can go to your Profile.
00:13:50
Under "Settings", which is the "Cog
00:13:53
wheel"... You go to "Notifications"... And here, you
00:13:56
can decide for each category how you want to get your
00:13:59
notifications... Do you want to get them in TEAMS?... In
00:14:03
Outlook? All this can be decided like... For instance:
00:14:07
"Mentions"... "Channel mentions"...
00:14:09
Do you want them in the "Banner"?... An email?... Which is your Outlook...
00:14:13
Or only show it in "Feed"?... Which is the "Activity tab"... To turn it
00:14:16
off... It's right here... So, I invite you to look at other
00:14:20
options, later on.
00:14:26
So just like that, this is how you...
00:14:31
follow up on notifications! Now, saving a message...

00:14:35
In any conversations... Let's say... "Project GAMMA"... I was here...
00:14:39
Apparently, I didn't send the message... So, I have to press the
00:14:42
little "Plane"... Here... I sent the message! Let's say... This message
00:14:46
was important... Just by hovering over it... On the top right... I can
00:14:50
say... "Save this message"... If I go back to it again, it's no longer
00:14:54
greyed out... It's turned to "red"... This is how I know it's active.
00:14:58
Also it says "Unsave this message"... But if want to locate all
00:15:01
my saved messages... Which is basically the equivalent of...
00:15:05
a "Bookmark", if you will... You go on your Profile and you click on
00:15:10
the word "Saved".
00:15:11
And on the left- hand side... You will see all the conversations
00:15:16
that you put aside... So, just by clicking on any conversation...
00:15:20
It will appear in "yellow" for a few seconds... Like that!
00:15:24
So, let's say... I'm done reading this message... It's no longer
00:15:28
important... I can go up here... "Unsave this message"... From
00:15:32
here... By clicking here...
00:15:35
I can pick another message.
00:15:37
Again... In "yellow"...
00:15:39
If this is no longer important, I can also click
00:15:44
on the tag directly, here.
00:15:48
And just like that, that message is no longer marked as "Saved".
00:15:55
Let's go back to the initial window
00:15:56
Again!
00:15:57
All right... So, here... I'm on the conversation thread with "Project
00:16:05
GAMMA"... So, we saw... From a conversation... We can switch
00:16:10
instantly to webconferencing or "Screen Sharing"... We can add more
00:16:14
people to the conversation.
00:16:19
If I need to obtain a link to a conversation... So,
00:16:26
first of all... I can click on any tabs...
00:16:28
Let me see... "Files"... There was nothing in "Files", here... Well,
00:16:38
let's say... I want the link to a file in my library... I'm going to

00:16:42
go to the "Files"
00:16:44
Tab, here... And I'm going to right- click on any file... And you see...
00:16:49
I have the option to open these files either in TEAMS, on a
00:16:52
browser, on my desktop application... I can download the
00:16:55
file... But I can also get a link to a file in TEAMS. In the
00:17:01
"Teams"'s tab... If I go to...
00:17:03
Uh, the channel... I can get the link to the channel.
00:17:08
By going to the "Three little dots"... I get a "Link to channel"...
00:17:11
I can also get the email address...
00:17:15
If I want the link to the team, I will go to
00:17:17
the team level, here...
00:17:20
And "Get link to team"...
00:17:23
So, this is how you would obtain the link to a team. So, basically...
00:17:28
Your are copying a link... So, let me do this... "Get link to team"...
00:17:32
I copy the link... Then all I have to do, is either open Outlook or
00:17:36
another type of messaging service... It could be Gmail, for
00:17:39
instance... I will open a new email... Incorporate the link in
00:17:43
that email to give it to the member of a team so he/she can
00:17:47
locate the team faster!
00:17:49
So, "New email" message...
00:18:01
Let's give it a few seconds...
00:18:02
And in the body of the message, I just "Copy/Paste"... You know...
00:18:10
I copied the link down... Then I'm pasting the link into the message... I can
00:18:14
say... "Here is the quick access
00:18:21
to our new team..."
00:18:33
And then I will just have to add the email address of all
00:18:36
the people that I've invited to this team, for instance.
00:18:50
So just
00:18:51
like
00:18:52
that... I get the links! So... Remember, in

00:18:55
this session, we've seen how to start a conversation on "1 on 1"
00:19:00
How to turn a "1 on 1" conversation into a "Group" chat...
00:19:03
Give a name to a personal
00:19:06
"Group" chat... And from a chat we saw that we can easily go to
00:19:12
webconferencing... Just by clicking on
00:19:14
the icons... Remember, we go to "Chat"...
00:19:19
The little icons that appear on top here... The "purple" ones
00:19:22
lead straight to the "Video" conferencing room. This
00:19:25
button is to add more people to the conversation... So, you
00:19:28
can add people
00:19:29
during a conversation... Or you can add even more people, once
00:19:34
you're inside the video conferencing room.
00:19:37
So, that's that for this session! See you on "TELEWORK #3"... "How
00:19:43
to organize meetings remotely..."
00:19:47
Have a pleasant day!
