Greetings, Everyone! We’ve had great success using Teams for the “Operations” side of our business (dividing up by channels like “fab shop”, “machine shop”, and others. We were saving noticeable amounts of time within the first few days.
The only thing we’re missing is how to use Teams on an organization-wide basis without exposing the calendars of upper management and executive Team members. What we accidentally noticed was that when we initially made an org-wide Team, any user could easily find an automatically-shared calendar for anyone. The Director of IT obviously doesn’t want that to happen, so we’ve held off on kicking off Teams for the whole company until we can find a solution.
I’ve scoured Google to no avail and I’ve tinkered my little heart out. Can anyone offer a little advice to get me pointed in the right direction? Or has anyone else overcome this issue?
I sincerely thank you all in advance for any help you can give.
Teams is lacking the support for “private” channels which could probably address such issue.
Here’s a comparison that I’ve made for creating separate Teams and using Channels as a structure.

Comparison whether to consider creating @MicrosoftTeams vs Channels structure since Private channels is the current most voted User Voice feature.
I agree on its use case but it does open up other items for discussion. https://t.co/UZmcdmiBmN pic.twitter.com/tODg3pjGuT— Fred Yano (@fredyano) January 10, 2019

Thanks, Fred. This might have to be our workaround for now.
