Celebrating 10 Years as a Microsoft MVP!

Back from my vacation, I am thrilled to share that I have been awarded the Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award for the 10th consecutive year. In addition to being recognized as an expert within Teams, I am have also been recognized as an expert with Microsoft Copilot. This means a lot to me.  Being an MVP has been an incredibly rewarding journey, both personally and professionally. It has provided me with countless opportunities to grow, learn, and connect with like-minded professionals who share a passion for technology and innovation.  The award is not just a title; it's a testament to the hard work, dedication, and contributions to the tech community. It's a privilege to be part of such an esteemed group of individuals who share the same love for technology, and sharing their knowledge about it.  As I reflect on the past decade, I am thankful for the experiences and knowledge I've gained. This recognition motivates me to continue sharing my expertise, mentor

New Yammer features rolling out in May and June

It's finally here, the new Yammer look is rolling out in May. This is a face-lift I know many of my customers and partners have been waiting for, and the preview is about to hit your tenants soon. The preview feature will not be available by default, but will require the admin to set a policy. 
Once the feature his your tenant, admins will have a new tab in the network configurations where the following options will appear:
  • Staying on the Classic Yammer
  • Enabling Preview as opt-in
  • Enabling Preview as default setting
Preview opt-in is my favorite choice, as this will allow users to control their own experience.
