Fong manages a team that isn’t co-located and says Slack helps keep everyone connected and aligned. Sharing the EPS workspace is Sabrina Fong, director of finance. It allows me to write fewer emails because I can get a response on Slack,” said Eller. “I’ve been sending more instant messages to people outside of our department and that’s been helpful. And with the roll-out of Stanford Slack, the tool is fully integrated with the Stanford directory, making it easier to find and direct message colleagues across the campus. Eller said her team found the Slack interface to be intuitive. Susan Eller, assistant dean for the Center for Immersive and Simulation-based Learning, and her team have been in Slack for about a year. Within the EPS workspace, a number of groups have built channel structures to meet the unique needs of their unit. Among the early adopters is the Educational Programs and Services (EPS) team. But well before its official debut, thousands of people in the Stanford community were already using the tool. In March, the university introduced Stanford Slack, which is the enterprise version of the app.
