When you join Asana you'll be in a shared space for you and your teammates.
This is where you'll add your work in teams, projects, tasks, and conversations.
If you join Asana with a work email address,
you will almost always create or join an organization
which is affiliated with your email domain.
Meaning everyone with an Apollo.org email
joins the same Asana organization called Apollo Enterprises in this case.
In some cases you won't be in an organization.
You'll be in a workspace.
If you don't see the ability to create teams
or you don't have multiple teams showing,
it is likely that you are in a workspace
this demo will not be covering all the details of workspaces
as these are primarily for personal use
or for teams that don't share email addresses.
If you are in a workspace and think you should be in an organization
please contact support: asana.com/support
Now that we have that out of the way,
I'll help you understand the basics of an organization.
In Asana, a team is a group of people who are working
together on a collection of projects.
Team names can include marketing, engineering, sales, etc.
Teams are listed here.
This includes the teams you are a member of
and the other teams in your organization that you can request to join.
A project is a group of related tasks.
Within each team you'll see projects that the team is working on.
To break down projects into smaller pieces of work use tasks.
A task is a single unit of work
and tasks in Asana can be used for many types of work
and information you need to track.
Conversations are how you communicate in Asana.
They help you move work forward.

My tasks is basically your to-do list.
