Three tips for collaborating in group chat on Microsoft Teams

Lindsay from the #MicrosoftTeams team shares three tips for better group chat collaboration in Microsoft Teams 1) keeping everyone on the same page by using Loop components to create shared checklists, 2) adding a tab to work chats so team members can see important files like Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, or Whiteboard sessions, and 3) getting right to the point by starting meetings straight from a chat.

If I have several different chats running at once, I find it helps to name those that are project-related. It makes it easier to locate them later.

Worried about GC for sharing files as it's being stored in an active employees OD. one day an employee left and his OD was deleted and goes all the shared docs 😢

If you add an excel spreadsheet and later you add a new user to the chat how do you get the new user access to the original spreadsheet?

I am surprised that Microsoft Teams still does not have options to use chat icons, chat admin and other features.

I hope that Microsoft will add these features very soon as we educators have more than 10 group chats and it really becomes difficult to distinguish and doesn't look professional as all the chat icons are made of profile pictures of group members.
