Firstline Worker functionality in Microsoft Teams allows for scheduling, communications, collaboration, access to data and AI. All of this functionality is tuned to Firstline Worker, yet integrates with the rest of the O365 and Azure functionality familiar to Information Workers.

Torren will present an overview, then dive into live demos of functionality
