Enabling your frontline workers with Microsoft Teams

Frontline workers are an essential part of your organization – they are the first to engage your customers, the first to see products and services in action, and the first to represent your brand. Yet, many frontline workers find themselves held back by legacy tools and processes, often being the last to experience the transformational benefits of modern technology.
