Streamline Team Collaboration with Microsoft Teams Project Integration (Full Transcript)

Speaker 1: Microsoft Teams is the communication hub where team members check in, discuss various work topics, and get things done together. There is no better place to host your team's projects, helping the team get organized on their work topics, and track progress alongside all the related chats in a single location. I'll be showing you how you can easily use Project in the context of Teams, to make it easier to coordinate, organize, and collaborate on your team's projects together with a few simple steps. In just a few clicks, you can get started on your project directly in Teams. Without having to switch contexts to a different app, you can simply create a new project or load an existing project as a tab in your Teams channels. From here, you can check in and update status using the grid view, organize the work by buckets on the board view, review the project timeline, track high-level progress in charts, assess the overall team workload, and more. When you want to know the latest changes and activities on specific tasks in the project, including what has changed and who made the changes, you can review task history, offering the details you need to assess the state of the work. When you need to follow up with team members, you can easily start a chat about the task to check in on progress, or provide some updates to others working on a task, using all the built-in chat features in Teams, such as emojis, GIFs, and more. As you review the project, you can use the people view to easily scan the workload across the team, and from there, assign tasks to yourself or others with a simple drag and drop. While in Teams, you can also go to the Tasks app and review the assigned to me list that brings together all of your tasks, including project tasks as well. You can easily manage your project tasks from this view, review the task details, and update progress. And all of these updates instantly reflect in the project view itself for others to see. Project in Teams gives you a single location to stay organized, communicate, and track progress on your projects. Try it today and share your feedback.
