==Manage Skype for Business Meetings==
The Skype for Business default options are appropriate for small and casual meetings with coworkers. It’s a good idea to change the options if you are inviting more than 10 to 15 people, want to control meeting permissions, or have invitees from other companies.

If you use Outlook, you can change options for all Skype for Business meetings that you set up by clicking New Skype for Business Meeting in your Outlook Calendar, clicking Meeting Options on the ribbon, and then selecting the options you want to use.

===These people don’t have to wait in the lobby===

You decide who gets into the meeting directly and who has to wait for you to let them in. If you have people wait, when the meeting starts, you’ll see a list of people who are waiting and can grant or deny access.
