At the office we use Office 365 services and have Outlook as our email client. I would like to find a way to have everyone on my team add some kind of shared calendar which would enable group reminders to pop up whenever I schedule them.
Now I have looked at every solution and article I could find, and as far as I can tell, it's impossible for reminders to work unless you actually add an Outlook account (with mailbox, calendar, tasks, etc) or invite someone to a meeting.
What I'm looking for is more of a solution like a public folder calendar, where a user can just add it to Outlook one time and then I can manage the reminders that will pop up for them. I'm hoping you fine folks can suggest something I haven't discovered...
Thank you in advance!
TL;DR How do I get a meeting reminder to pop up on group members' Outlook calendar without actually adding any individual to the meeting request?

Agree with Reddy, according to my tests, creating a distribution group and adding everyone to this distribution group, when creating a Outlook meeting and add this group as the recipient, everyone in the group should be able to receive meeting reminders normally. If the problem still exists, please check if there is something wrong with your Outlook client feature, you could try to repair your Outlook client and see if this issue could be resolved.
