On the subject of Microsoft's quality culture, #Teams shipped dark mode support in 2023 but ¼ of the way into 2025 they still haven't figured out how to reliably tell whether it's day or nighttime.

I've had a bunch of meetings with a subcontractor in my current position. They're located somewhere else, and are sporting a somewhat charming but thick #accent. To help me out a bit, I've enabled Teams' live captioning. Either that feature is completely useless, or one of the team members is planning some sort of coup:

"Let me speak for the bomb ★★★★ to Alexandra"

#livecaptioning #teams #outsourcing

Heh, after some recent #Windows patches, #Microsoft #Teams isn't even able to launch automatically on startup half the time.

This is of course advanced and super-complicated feature that is not well understood yet in 21st century, I do not blame Microsoft for not getting it right. 🙄

"Remember that the teams you grow in uncertainty are the ones that lead you in recovery." - Futurist Jim Carroll

Start building the team you’ll need tomorrow - today.

That's always been a priority for any organization, but it's probably even more important right now.

That's because most companies consider downsizing as the first instinctive reaction in a downturn. That's often the wrong thing to do because they will find themselves in a precarious position as they come out the other side. Don’t just protect your team. Prepare it. Don’t just retain your talent. Grow it!
The fact is, teams who lead tomorrow are being built right now.

Downturns are when truly great teams are built, not just maintained.

Organizations that invest in people during volatility create their future competitive edge, because when the recovery hits - and it always does - the prepared teams move first. So start today. Launch the training. Run the stretch assignment which will challenge your team to do the extraordinary. Bet on someone’s potential. Fuel your people with purpose. Because the future won’t wait for you to catch up.

Why is this critical? Because we’ve entered a new talent era in which skills access is one of your most important success factors. That's a reality, downturn or no downturn. Here's why:

- knowledge is fragmenting. Careers are splintering into hyper-specialized niches.

- skills are degrading. The half-life of knowledge is collapsing

- talent is transient. Loyalty is low. Agility is everything.

- complexity is rising. You need the right skills—on demand, not just on payroll.

- experience is the edge. Teams that learn through doing adapt faster.

All of this means that you'll never have all the knowledge you need to get things done, downturn or not. You are in a constant war for the best talent, a perpetual race for skills. That war doesn't stop when the battlefield of a downturn begins. When others hit the "pause", successful organizations know that when things improve, having the right talent and teams in place will let them fly. So what do they do? Rather than cutting, they invest by pressing the "play" button.

In doing this, they build a powerful currency - loyalty. All around them, their people see people see people being downsized and let go, while they remain stable. That matters - it's showing people they matter especially when times are tough.

Trust me, their loyalty will matter as conditions improve

Futurist Jim Carroll has been speaking about the reality of the skills specialization trend since 1997 when he coined the phrase ‘nomadic workers’ in his book Surviving the Information Age.

And today the Teams app on the laptop ALSO has lots its "teams" icon.

This is how you can get it back:

Was treibt dich an? Die besten Ergebnisse erzielst du, wenn deine Arbeit einem Sinn folgt.
In #Teams: Finde heraus, was die intrinsische Motivation jedes Einzelnen stärkt, und unterstütze diese.

MS365 hell.

> Hi Peter, I'm null from Tech M365 support

MS Software trust incoming. Looped into a support request of my Team.

Ich hasse solches #Nudging von #Microsoft

Und wieso hat Microsoft schon wieder ungefragt Copilot auf meinem Rechner installiert?

Feature Team Strawman Fallacy https://bdfinst.medium.com/5-minute-devops-feature-team-strawman-fallacy-d8056c95d31c #teamsorganization #teams #agileteams

When the chat bubbles on #Teams indicate your colleague is typing a message for ~20 min and ends up sending a single sentence 🧐

The greatest bonding experience at my job is all of us talking about how much we hate #Microsoft #Teams. What can bridge the gap between cultures and religions? A shared loathing of calendars in Outlook.

Je kiff les réunions #teams où tu attends 25 minutes comme con dans la salle d'attente que l'organisateur veuille bien te laisse entrer...

...et comprendre ensuite que le lien dans le mail d'invitation n'est pas le bon, qu'il faut prendre celui qui est inscrit dans l'agenda.
