Many companies have their employees divided into different teams. These teams can be by department, project or job. It is very common to see a marketing team or an accounting team. This helps to clarify who is responsible for what work and can help set clear expectations. It is a system used in businesses to organize employees.
As you probably already know, in monday.com there is a person column. This is used to mark who the person is that should be doing a specific task. This begs the questions, what if you want to mark a team that is responsible for the task? Or, what if you are planning a large project and what to assign a team that is responsible for each phase? Additionally, what if you have 10 people on a team and want to notify everyone on the team of an important update. Do you need to create an automation to notify each person separately? Is there a simpler way to work with teams in monday.com or is everything only done on an individual level?
