Streamlining Communication with Microsoft Teams: Our Approach

Here at TechHouse, we consider ourselves experts in making remote-only offices work — after all, we’ve been remote from the beginning!

Over the years, we’ve discovered that Microsoft Teams can significantly enhance internal communication when used effectively:

  • For immediate attention – we prefer a call on Teams
  • For urgent matters – a message on Teams works best
  • For non-urgent issues – an email suffices

These guidelines help us maintain a balance between addressing immediate needs and focusing on ongoing projects, ensuring optimal productivity.

Organizing Contacts by Skill

We’ve found it beneficial to organize contacts by skill rather than by department. This approach allows us to efficiently address specific needs.

However, it’s crucial to manage the creation of new Teams to prevent confusion and maintain effective collaboration.

Prioritizing Work-Life Balance

At TechHouse, we understand the importance of balancing professional commitments with personal responsibilities. That’s why we appreciate the flexibility offered by Microsoft Teams.

With Teams on their mobile devices, our team members can participate in meetings from anywhere, providing them with the flexibility they need.

Embracing Flexibility with Microsoft Teams

Being confined to a desk all day isn’t conducive to productivity or job satisfaction. If your tech guidelines are creating rigidity, it might be time to reconsider.

Introducing flexibility can foster trust within your team, leading to a more harmonious and productive work environment.

Investing in technology like Microsoft Teams that empowers your team to work in a way that suits them best could be a game-changer for your organization.
