In Outlook for Mac, you can share calendar information with another person, or even give them more advanced control over you email and calendar using delegation.

Similar to having an assistant that helps you manage your incoming paper mail, another person, known as a delegate, can receive and respond to email messages and meeting requests and responses on your behalf. You can also grant the delegate additional permissions to read, create, or change items in your Microsoft Exchange Server mailbox.

Note: A Microsoft Exchange Server account is required.

  1. In the Calendar view, find the calendar you want to share in the left navigation.

    Hover your mouse cursor over the account name of the calendar you want to share, click on the Ellipses (...) button or right click on the account, and then select Sharing Permissions....

    The Sharing Permissions selection option.

  2. In the Calendar Properties window, click on the Plus sign (+) button and start typing in the name or email address of the person you want to share a calendar with.

    As you type, suggestions will appear below. 

  3. Click on the name or address you want to share with. Then in the Permissions drop-down menu, select the level of permissions you want to give the person.
