Awkward Teams Meetings Just Got Better

Have you ever been stuck in a Microsoft Teams meeting, constantly repeating, "Next slide, please"? This minor but impactful update from Microsoft will change the way you handle presentations, enhancing the fluidity and professionalism of your meetings.

Control your own presentation slides

Gone are the days of awkward pauses and miscommunication during presentations. Teams is rolling out a new feature enabling multiple people to control the presentation slides in a meeting. This upgrade may seem small, but it significantly improves the experience by allowing seamless transitions between presenters.

How does this update transform your meetings?

  • Smooth transitions: With shared control, passing the baton to another presenter happens without hitches.
  • Reduced interruptions: Say goodbye to the repeated "Next slide, please," ensuring a more natural flow.
  • Increased efficiency: No more waiting for someone else to manage your slides. You have the power at your fingertips.

This feature initially rolls out on the Windows desktop, but expect broader availability soon.

Microsoft Teams is at the heart of modern workplace communication. To fully leverage its power, consider how integrated IT solutions can optimize your usage:
