You collaborate with your colleagues and customers every day, and your conversations are ever evolving, as your projects are always in flux. Whether you’re using a white board and a dry erase marker, or a shared document in a virtual meeting room, sometimes you want better, more integrated results out of your team’s collaborative experience. In this course, Microsoft Certified Trainer and instructor Heather Severino introduces you to MURAL, the powerful collaboration tool.
