“I would try to configure the layout similar to that of Microsoft teams, even perhaps integrate the both?”

“I have been engaged both giving and receiving recognition to my teammates, I also make the company feel more integrated: I recognize people from India, England or Brazil being far from them and still get to send a friendly "give me five" or thumbs up.”
