“Decisions builds on current functionality in Microsoft Teams,” explains Mikkel Stærk Dickenson, Senior Account Executive at Decisions. “Through the partnership with Microsoft, we have developed a solution which also integrates with Outlook, Word and Planner. Decisions makes agenda creation a collaborative process and ensures effective capturing of tasks and decisions.”
Meeting organizers in Vestas can create an agenda in Outlook, while participants can contribute to the preparation directly in Microsoft Teams. During the meeting, Decisions allows people in Vestas to manage time efficiently. After the meeting, the minutes can be automatically generated, and follow-up tasks can be managed in Planner.
“Virtual meetings can often go off track which can be both frustrating and demotivating,” says Dickenson. “It is important for meeting culture that everyone is aligned on the purpose of the meeting and the expected outcome, so the time participants spend together is more effective. To support this, the application nudges effective behaviour before, during and after meetings. It also dramatically reduces the number of emails being sent containing different versions of material, so everyone has up-to-date information.”
Since piloting the solution, it has been rolled out to more than 200 Microsoft Teams teams across the organization. The solution has been made available to all employees, and currently there are more than 2,500 active users globally.
