In hybrid work environments in particular, it is crucial that all participants are equally involved. Microsoft Whiteboard offers numerous tools for this purpose: you can comment on content, use emojis as reactions, or let participants follow your view. Sharing whiteboards is also easy, both in the browser and directly in Microsoft Teams. By using these features in a targeted manner, you can increase transparency, promote active participation, and structure your collaboration in a sustainable way. This turns a digital whiteboard into an interactive workspace.

1. Open Whiteboard

Open Microsoft Whiteboard either directly via Microsoft Teams or via your browser. Sign in with your Microsoft 365 account and select an existing board or create a new one.
