Assigning and Modifying User Roles in a Team
Assigning and modifying user roles in a Microsoft Teams environment helps manage what each team member can do within the team. The roles of team members and owners come with different permissions and responsibilities, ensuring that team members can only perform actions suitable for their role, while owners can manage team membership and settings that govern member abilities.
In the Members tab of the team settings (… | Manage team), you can change a member’s role (e.g., from Member to Owner) by navigating to the drop-down menu next to their name under the Role column and selecting the new role, as shown in Figure 6.23.

and Remove-TeamUser
