Change Teams Meeting Organizer
We often have one person booking a meeting or series of meetings (say training classes) that ends up being run by others. Would be nice if the meeting organizer could add another organizer or change the organizer to someone else. Currently only the organizer can take attendance. In our case, the organizer may not even be planning on attending the meeting.

If an organiser is no longer part of the organisation for any reason, then the appointment must be recreated so that changes can be made to the appointment.

This would be really helpful for secretaries who do scheduling on behalf of other people but do not want to be the organizer of that meeting.

Everyone but Teams is able to do this.

Can't wait for this feature. Each time somebody leaves the Organization, we need to recreate all meeting series..

In addition to the problem of the organizer not being able to attend, which makes it impossible to use Breakout Rooms, even if you are able to assign other roles, there is an additional issue: people leaving the company. The recurring appointment lives on but the organizer doesn't exist anymore.
Fix this!

Would be so helpful for Education. If a organizer can not make it to a team meeting, there is no way (that I can see) to let the sub take over and be able to create breakout rooms.

This Feature is necessary for Teams as we run Go-Live Teams sessions during application go-lives, and need to be able to change organizers so that they can assign people to the breakout rooms.

Is there any update on the request? Users are getting very impatient waiting for the ability to have multiple meeting organizers.

We are getting a lot of logical problems where users send teams meetings under a shared agenda but can't fully manage everything due to be required as organisor which cannot be changed. This would solve a lot. If around 3 could be selected it would make life much more simple.

This feature would make transitioning into, or out of, of teams and roles much easier!
For example, when a new scrum master joins a team it would be so much easier to transfer ownership of reoccurring meetings rather than having to create new meetings, re-inviting everyone, cancelling the previous meetings and losing all of that previous chat history.

No question: one of the big gaps in MS Teams to use it efficiently and productively in a dynamic company.
