Evan and Dave chat with Jeff Teper, Corporate Vice President, Microsoft 365 Collaboration with Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive. 

Jeff leads the product design, and engineering teams for Teams (and a few other areas too) with the aim of empowering people and organizations to collaborate. Though he's been at Microsoft for close to 30 years, he's still inspired by its core mission of connecting people everywhere with tools and technologies to create, build, and achieve more together.

There  may not be any other enterprise communications app as successful as Microsoft Teams.  Last October Microsoft revealed Teams now has 115 million daily active users. That’s more than a 50 percent increase from the 75 million that Microsoft reported about six weeks earlier.

Jeff joined the Teams team in Q120, and lived through a lot of that growth. We cover what Satya thinks of Teams, Metaswitch, why Outlook and Teams are separate clients, if Teams is a business or consumer app, pandemic impacts, and so much more. 

When not working, you might find Jeff preparing for a marathon, noshing a bagel, or enjoying The Beatles with his family.  He earned a BS at NYU and an MBA from Harvard.
