The Best of Yammer from #MSIgnite
At Yammer, we continue to strive to change the way the world works. Last week at Microsoft Ignite 2016, we wanted to let everyone know that we are still very much committed to that mission. The Yammer booth was buzzing with activity, our customers were asking questions about how to grow their Yammer usage, and our Yammer MVPs and partners conducted numerous sessions to help further educate attendees about how to use Yammer to transform how companies work.
Below is a listing with links to recordings of many of the Yammer related sessions from Ignite. I wasn’t able to attend all of them, but I’ve tried to include a one sentence summary or tweet of each session.
