Course Information

Working Together Live with Your Team Course Logo

The best way to learn about working together is with your team. This course is designed for your team to do together – to look at alternate ways of collaborating, decide which could work for your team, and then change the work practices together.

Overview: This course is all about finding better ways for your team to work better together, by utilising the variety of tools within Microsoft Teams – from sharing documents, project tasks, group chat and connecting into third party tools. As you progress through the course, there is an on-going project that will challenge you on how you communicate and share information within your team/s now, and how you could improve on this. The teams you are part of could be external customers/clients, multiple teams within your organisation, or sometimes, you may be a team of one and strengthening your processes for those moments. As you have your team with you, you will be able to work on the projects together – if needed, we can break the class into smaller groups for these projects.

How it works: I’ll catch up with the team leader (or delegated team member) before the training to understand where the team is at. We’ll also schedule the training dates at this time and then I can organise the training access for all of your team. Then as the date arrives, we’ll all jump on the first live Teams session together – this one is the big one, a half day. In the next few weeks we’ll do the two smaller follow up sessions – there’s always tweaks to your working together plan and questions on Teams, and this could be a great time to cover a few more skills we didn’t get to in the first session. Guaranteed that there is more in Teams than what you expect!

Everyone will have access to the on-demand lessons as well, so if there’s any skills we choose not to cover in the course, or skills you need to sharpen up on later, it will be there.

Helping people to learn software tools so they can work together from wherever they are.. even from under a Palm Tree. Initial software tools that Rhonda taught on-line were focused around IBM Lotus Notes and Domino technical courses. And then there were many years of on-site and classroom teaching, consulting, developing, administration – mostly based around Notes and Domino, but more recent years across to Microsoft desktop products. Fast forward to 2023. Rhonda has relaunched Palm Tree Learning to focus on helping teams to work together utilising Microsoft Teams. Love my family. Love my God. Love music. Love trails.
