Microsoft Community Office Hours, Episode 56
For our 56th episode this week of the “Microsoft Community Office Hours” series, I was joined by Eric Riz, MVP (@rizinsights), Hal Hostetler, MVP (@TVWizard), and Mike Nelson, MVP (@mikenelsonio) for another panel discussion shared via live stream in the M365 Community on Facebook, and simulcast on Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
Once again, Sean McDonough, MVP (@spmcdonough) is temporarily dead to us for missing today’s show. Hopefully he’ll be back with us for next week’s show.
