Teams setup
1. Navigate to Settings > Setup > Teams.
2. Select the relevant team from the drop-down list of teams (or create a new team by selecting Add new).
3. Add the person to the Members section by typing in their name or check to see if they are already a team member listed.
4. Nominate a Team Leader for each team by selecting their name from the drop-down list and click Save.
Note: Only a user that is already 'Member' of the team can be selected as 'Team Leader'.
Permission setup
Permissions setup in Settings > Security for the column "Team" will control what a Team Leader can see or change about people only within the team they lead.
Note: The 'Team' permission only applies to Team leaders (not to team members).
Check the permission group settings for the Team column to determine what a Team Leader is able to View/Change/Not see:
Check each permission group to see if there are Team permissions and review which employees are in those permission groups. See this article to amend security permissions.
