Tom talked about how Yammer is very close to 100% adopted, no all employee emails from the MD
/ internal Jobs are posted – allows for questions, or location everyone sees the answer
Had an internal campaign around engagement

Ye olde Yammer versus teams question.
Yammer is your companies (enterprise) social site.
Teams is collaboration.
You will see overlap (no gaps)
⁃ Not trying to kill off email, just the silos
