summary for non-techies**

Microsoft Teams has introduced an "End Event" feature that allows organizers and presenters to efficiently conclude sessions, signaling attendees with a message that the session has ended, and providing presenters a transition to the Green Room for post-event activities.

Direct effects for Operations**

User Disruption
If the 'End Event' feature is implemented without proper user training, attendees may be confused about the abrupt end of the session, leading to frustration and a negative user experience.

Loss of Engagement
Without preparation, users may not understand the new feature, resulting in decreased engagement during sessions as attendees may leave prematurely or miss important closing remarks.
