>> Hey everyone, Daniel and Sunny here
and welcome to the May Modern Work Update. >> As you can see, Daniel and I have had the
opportunity to meet up this month. Hi Daniel, >> Hi Sunny!
As you begin to take advantage of the hybrid workplace, just as we are,
it's reassuring to know the tool set that you use to get work done every day, effectively,
Microsoft Teams has been evolving as well with new capabilities to support the new way of working.
>> In this video, we'll take you through a couple of new features
in Microsoft Teams meetings, including PowerPoint Live and apps in Teams Meetings.
If you're interested in these features, check out the webinars our team is running at the end
of this month, later in this video. *intentionally muted*
Wait, Daniel, you're on mute! >> Let's get started with PowerPoint
Live. Presenting PowerPoints online has always been a challenge. Whether it's dealing
with the fact you can't see your speaker notes, missing out on audience reactions,
or in general struggling to move back and forth and the dreaded next slide,
please, we've all heard way too many times. >> PowerPoint Live aims to change this,
bringing a cloud native lo-o-ow bandwidth experience into your Microsoft Teams Meetings
Let's check it out. >> Here in my meeting
I'll open the share tray as I would normally, but then selecting a display
I'll come down and look for a PowerPoint share and then choose a deck of interest.
>> Once the slide opens my view as a presenter is immediately shifted.
Not only do I have the notes shown in my display here on the right, I've also got access to all
of my slides down here along the bottom. >> Don't fear your audience can't see
this. Rather they only see what's highlighted in red here. However,
they do, at least initially, have the ability to navigate through my content on their own.
I can leverage the eye option at the top of the display to enable or remove this
ability though at anytime whatever I show. As the presenter, however, will be captured
in the recording. >> I also want to note
an additional trick. Firstly, imagine that you're midway through your presentation
and you want to jump back to a key title. That's easy by pressing the overview
button to view all your content and simply select the one that
you're after and it will move it for everyone. >> Notice as an audience member, Sunny can also
enable accessibility settings on the presentation, and I can do this as a presenter as well.
Both high contrast settings and live slide translation to several languages are available
because the presentation is loaded in the cloud for each user.
Each user customizes their own perspective. >> Now let's consider handing over content.
We can do this in a really simple way. It Daniel wishes to present next, he can simply
press take control, an option available to all presenters in your Teams meetings.
When Daniel does this, he receives the full presents experience
and I simply get the audience view. >> We've also made it easier to add
apps to your Teams meetings, adding additional functionality like surveys and task tracking.
Rather than waiting for the call to begin and setting this up in the calendar, we can
now add apps directly inside of the teams meeting, including things like Forms, ASANA, and Decisions.
>> All we need to do is select add an app from our more options menu and select one from the list.
It's as simple as that, Forms reading, tracking, tools, notes and more from our
fantastic third-party providers are available. >> We'd also like to invite you to our upcoming
Microsoft Teams webinar, where we go deeper on how you can thrive in your next Teams meeting and
showcase some frameworks to guarantee its success. >> Check it out at the registration link below and
we'll see you next month, bye. >> Bye.
