I would like to discuss the best way of sharing a personal calendar with your coworkers/team/department
We often get requests of a groups of people they want to share their personal calendar with each other. We used AD security groups for this (often mail enabled), but would like to know if there are better solutions since we gradually move online.
We are pushing towards Office 365 groups, so people can manage the group members themselves but these groups can't be assigned calendar permissions.
We want to avoid creating multiple type of groups with identical members.
Any suggestions on best practices in this quickly evolving landscape?
Thanks!

Hi Julia, I agree it's the easiest approach.
The default sharing setting is already set to sharing free/busy.
We see a movement of departement heads convincing their teams to share limited details with everyone within a departement. Sharing this info with the entire organization is one step too far.
For our scenario it would have been perfect of we could use O365 groups, that way it 's completely self-service and users don't have to send sharing invitations everytime there is a new hire.
PS Good to know the default user is changed into My organization.
