By default, other people will be able to see whether your time is marked as free or busy, but they will not be able to see any details of your appointments and meetings. For most, this is the preferred option. You can provide increased access to your calendar if your colleagues need to know the subject or all of the details of your meetings. 

  1. In the Home ribbon, click Share Calendar.

  2. In the To: field, enter the email addresses of the people you want to share your calendar with.
    Or click on the To: button. In the Global Address List, search for the people you'd like to share your calendar with. Double-click on their names to add them to the To field.

  3. Click OK.

  4. In the Details field, select the level of access you'd like them to have.
    Limited details: Ability to view meeting subject and location only.
    Full details: Ability to view all meeting details.

  5. Click Send. An email will be sent to each person informing them that you've shared your calendar.
