Okay, so anybody who has read any of my previous articles knows that I am a man that is all about neat organization. I like to know the who, what, when, and where of my schedule at all times. My personal belief is that if you have a well organized schedule, your life will flow a million times smoother.
I often watch people that work in companies where tidy scheduling does not take precedence. It is quite a show. These people often run about like chickens that have just had their heads chopped off. They seem to be under a constant and steady flow of stress, worry, and irritability. I don't know about you, but that does not sound like a great quality of work life.
So where am I going with this? As I am sure you can imagine, my absolute favorite feature within Sharepoint is the calendar. The calendar feature has been the most used portion of Sharepoint in my office.
How is it used?
There are a number of different ways in which I will list and discuss here.
o Appointment Setting
Like any business environment, my office is full of appointment setting. We set appointments to meet with clients, potential clients, investors, you name it. SP allows us to have a public calendar that shows who is coming in the office at what time and who they are meeting with. So long as my team stays current on checking the calendar, everyone knows what is going on.
o Out of Office Notifications
This is perhaps my favorite part of the calendar. How many times has a member of your team left for vacation, or left the office for a Dr.'s Appt. or anything of the like and you have been left in the dark about there absence. It always happens that you need them for something when they are out of the office also! Well, say goodbye to this kind of hassle! I have my team mark the public calendar to notify all times and dates that they will be out of the office!
There is not much more to say about this. The Sharepoint calendar is amazing and I do not know what I would do without it!
