Use this interactive demo to learn how to grant presenter access to a participant in Microsoft Teams.

Quick summary

To make someone a presenter in Teams, open the People panel during a meeting, find the participant, and use the three-dot menu to change their role. This lets meeting organizers quickly promote attendees to presenter so they can share content and manage the session.


Steps

  1. Click on the People option in your Teams meeting to open the participant panel.
  2. Locate the attendee you want to promote and click the three-dot icon next to their name.
  3. Select the 'Make an attendee' option from the dropdown menu to adjust their current role.
  4. Click 'Change' to confirm and apply the presenter role to the selected participant.

📌 Why this matters

Controlling presenter permissions in Microsoft Teams is essential for running structured, secure virtual meetings. By promoting specific participants to presenter, meeting organizers can ensure only authorized attendees can share screens, manage content, and interact with meeting controls. This feature is especially valuable for enterprise teams, educators, and event hosts who need to maintain order during large calls. Knowing how to quickly change attendee roles in Teams reduces disruptions and keeps meetings running smoothly.
