👉 Highlights
- “Copilot has completely transformed my entire direction as far as my focus around the 365 stack.”
- “Microsoft has a much bigger story to tell. As part of that evangelist for 365, we all now have a better story to tell.”
- “If a person is drawing a salary of 70,000 US dollars a year, they only have to save themselves 54 minutes a month in order to recoup that value.”
- “83% of their people see that it saves them about 29% of their day.”
- “We run a jumpstart programme for Copilot to help organisations keep going with Copilot.”
- “By the time they're done, they're like, that's going to save us so much time just in Teams, maybe just in Outlook, maybe in Excel.”
- “There's a side of Copilot that people don't even realise exists, and that's the whole agentic side of Copilot.”
- “A big question of compliance and governance, which is why I tell clients, you can use ChatGPT, but where does it go from there?”
- “Copilot is about the data. Copilot is not going to access anything that you don't already have access to.”
- “Start off with a pilot group. I always start off with executives that probably have access to everything anyway.”
- “Treat it as if it's an assistant. Give it very detailed instructions when you're working with it.”
- “You can't, you're not going to hurt anything. Just look Copilot, just do it.”
