Microsoft Teams Tip #4 - Praise Your Team!

Did you know you can give kudos or "Praise" to team members in Microsoft Teams now? Here's how it works.

First, open the Teams channel where you want to acknowledge your colleague. Then from beneath the box to start a new conversation, select Praise. (It may be inside the show more (...) button.)



Now you can select the type of Praise to give your teammate(s).



  • Achiever - Maybe someone just received a new certification or award
  • Awesome - Recognize some general awesomeness
  • Coach - Praise a superstar mentor
  • Creative - Perfect for teams solving a tricky problem
  • Kind Heart - Worked through a trying situation?
  • Leadership - It's important to recognize leadership traits shining through
  • Problem Solver - For those who love a challenge
  • Team Player - No lone rangers in here!
  • Thank You - The team worked some extra time to meet a deadline? Thank them!


From here, select the team members to add to the Praise, Preview the post and send it!

That's all there is to it. For the official Office support page on Teams Praise, visit this link.


Happy praising!

KuaiFit K Sport Headphones With In-Ear Personal Trainer - Wrap-Up Review

A couple of weeks ago, I did an unboxing and initial impressions post about the KuaiFit K Sport Headphones on my Morning Dew blog . I’ve been using them for a couple of weeks and tried the companion training app for Android, and I’m ready to talk about my impression of the product.

Microsoft Teams Tip #1 - Enable Developer Preview Builds

Welcome to the first Microsoft Teams Tip! This tip is a simple one, but it can provide the Teams dev team with early insight on the latest fixes and features coming to Teams. If you enable Developer Preview in your Teams client, your client will automatically download these preview builds as they become available. Here's how to enable it. In the lower-left corner of MS Teams, click on your profile picture. On the menu that opens, select "About". If "Developer Preview" is not checked, click it to select it. That's it! You will now receive early preview builds of Teams. Hint: If Developer Preview is not available in the About menu, it may be disabled by your organization. My company has them disabled. Enjoy and be sure to provide feedback to the Teams team! Follow them on Twitter at @MicrosoftTeams . del.icio.us Tags: ms teams , teams tips , preview builds
