Meetings, simplified
Meetings are the lifeblood of any business, but it shouldn't be
at the expense of efficiency. According to information compiled
by Atlassian, most employees attend 62 meetings a month,
including 31 hours spent in unproductive meetings. Those
unnecessary meetings carry a high price, costing US businesses
$37 billion annually.

New communication and collaboration tools like Teams make it
easy to conduct more productive meetings by providing familiar,
easy-to-use features, plus enterprise-grade security, compliance,
and control.
For more and more organizations that can't always get everyone
in the same room, Teams provides a rich and immersive
meeting experience where workers can add Office files, such as
PowerPoint documents with animations, via desktop or mobile.
Need to ping someone for a quick question? With just a click
or two, start instant messaging, share documents, or set up an
online meeting. Team members in different locations can then
meet face to face using high-fidelity imagery and view the same
information without spending the time or money to meet in
person.
"Being able to meet online will become even more important
as we expand geographically. We can hold effective meetings
without our managers spending time commuting back and
forth."
