Things like calendar syncing will help users see what the day-to-day of other workers are like, and help better coordinate projects.
New coauthor features for Word, PowerPoint, and Excel will make cooperative task management easier and more transparent between groups.
How its done

The earliest version of the new Outlook features are expected to roll out in the coming weeks with more on the way.
