- Microsoft Teams profiles can now display specific skills
- Show off your attributes with an expanded profile
Finding the right person for a specific task at work could soon be a lot easier thanks to a new update for Microsoft Teams.
The online collaboration platform is working on a new feature that will allow users to promote their vital skills and attributes directly within Teams through their Microsoft 365 profile.
Workers will now be able to list their skills on their Microsoft 365 profile card in Teams, giving colleagues and managers a quick view of exactly why they would be good (or bad) for a given job.

In a Microsoft 365 roadmap post announcing the news, the company notes that it will “make it easier to meet colleagues, build meaningful connections, and manage your own skills profile right from your daily workflow.”
The tool is listed as in development for now, but has a planned release date of March 2026, so users shouldn’t have to wait too long.
Upon release, Microsoft says the feature will be available to Teams users on Windows and Mac worldwide.
The release will be the latest in a series of recent releases aimed at making Microsoft Teams users more productive when using the service.
This includes adding the ability for users to save messages to their conversations and chats, meaning users will no longer have to manually trawl through long conversations to find the message they need.
The company also revealed that configurable keyboard shortcuts are finally coming to Microsoft Teams soon, giving users quick and easy access to symbols, icons, and more that they may use regularly on a daily basis, but are sometimes not at hand when typing in a work environment.
