today I'm really excited to talk to you guys about Microsoft 365 Copilot Microsoft 365 copilot is without a question the most substantial and significant change to the modern workplace that you will ever see at least in this current lifetime that I've had this is a big change and it has big implications so I'm going to talk about it in three ways today I'm going to talk about why number one why is copilot important to you and why should you care about it number two I'm going to talk about what is copilot and what is it going to have number three I want to talk about what should you do about copilot what can you action today or prepare your organization for so let's talk about number one why is copilot so important why is why am I so excited and enthusiastic to tell you this and why am I very urgently saying that you should pay attention because copilot is all about AI in the organizational Enterprise and if you've never really dug into the new AI stuff it's okay AI is having a very substantial impact on the industry and in organizations today in all the c-level meetings that I get and I have a lot of these where I talk about technology strategy the first thing that I say when I enter that room is I say the one thing I want you to take away from today is that AI is too important to leave in the hands of technologists Business Leaders the people working in the organization they need to understand Ai and they need to start embracing enabling empowering guiding driving and making it successful if you leave it just in the hands of the technologists you'll be missing out on a huge opportunity it's not linear this is a major transformative opportunity for every organization so that's the first thing that I always state to Executives and naturally when we talk about that it becomes a question of well what does it really mean well if you've ever used something like Chachi BT or you've used some of the more popularized tools maybe Bing chat when you use these tools what they enable you to do is save a massive amount of time essentially the gist of what so in point number two what Microsoft uh 365 copilot does is it takes that drafting stage you know like when you're creating an email or you're preparing for a meeting or you're doing something and you do all sorts of aggregation you go look up things and you put them together and you synthesize them you make sure that they make sense you summarize them for yourself or you make sure that you're prepared to use them or reference them all of that kind of work is something that can be streamlined today with search and other techniques and storing things in the right places Etc here what's happening is AI is able to reason over that and do it a much much faster and more effective way than we ever could now this is something that is again transforming how search externally works if you've ever used Bing chat search or new Bing versus like traditional search but it's also having an impact within organizations and Microsoft 365 means that it's more accessible to everyone who has access to Microsoft 365. this is a good thing because a lot of people who are using these tools kind of have a leg up they have an advantage that other people don't have because they're a bit more technologically savvy Etc and they've spent a bit of time learning that here these tools will become more available that doesn't mean you still you'll still need to learn how to use these tools we're all going to relearn but it does mean that it's much more addressable and accessible to the business the second reason uh or the way that you'd use this tool is for the next step so once you've aggregated and gathered information whether it's preparing for meeting creating a proposal document or doing a variety of other tasks you often optimize that work so some people have amazing Excel skills or people have abilities to create awesome PowerPoint presentations some people can really write just elegant and effective persuasive material all of those things that I've just described are no longer true differentiations because these tools make it so that everyone has access to those types of tools those expertise Etc and in fact many cases what we're finding is that these tools especially things like Microsoft 365 copilot or more broadly Chachi BT 4 if you've looked at the more recent reports these ones actually improve Often by 50 or more the productivity or efficiency of those people who are creating that content and pretty much everyone consistently says that the work product the thing that you produce out of it is more effective it's better better quality Etc so this means that it doesn't just give you tools and techniques to accelerate the way you work and get to that earlier draft faster but it also means that your quality of work product is faster and you're focusing more time not on learning the tools and tweaking and optimizing things but actually about how do I communicate how do I enrich this how do I make it more communicative or effective Etc and this works in the collaborative format too they showed examples with Microsoft Loop where people are working in these multiplayer by Design these always up-to-date experiences and when you do something like that and we collaborate using these types of tools what it does is it augments our own speed and efficiency in that collaboration it becomes an active member not a passive member an active member in that form of collaboration now we have control over it at all times during this again control from a user experience perspective with different types of ways to accept decline adjust and tweak but it's really important to acknowledge that this is going to have an impact on both communication collaboration and arguably longer term management which we will not talk about today because it's a little bit more complicated so the last thing that I wanted to highlight is they also shared announcements around how power automate is going to be using more of these copilot tools just like the development stack has been changing and this means that the second thing that I often talk to Executives about which is low code transformation is also changing in a drastic way this basically means that a lot of people will go to somebody like us and Technology services company or they'll go to you know it to get integration or or a solution to solve a problem within the business these are these lowercase p processes right the big capital P processes those are in Erp systems or CRM systems or customer experience systems or Sales Systems or whatever they're in dedicated systems with their own AI Journey Etc but here what's happening is all of this other stuff the lowercase p stuff that stuff is now being digitized much much faster not just because of low code but now because of these AI assistants or bot assisted development scenarios so what this basically means is that more and more of our work landscape is being digitized at a much more rapid rate including these lowercase p processes more and more of the work we do is going to be augmented by these tools and what this will really lead to is the third point of my discussion today this should matter to you and you should take action so what am I encouraging I think that everyone who listens to this or if you're just trying to make sense of copilot should understand and if you've never experimented with it use Bing chat which is the new Bing search or use something like Chachi BT it's important to use those tools because you need to see what it's like to use them tools you need to actually see how intelligent and capable it is and there's a syntax there's a way to to interact with these things that makes it more effective so you don't just chat with it you have to to give it guidance I want you know you to give me the format back like this of what you're giving me I want you to start each of the paragraphs with a question I want you to provide persuasive language but focus on examples and do it in this way so you have to guide it and as you learn those tools yourself those are all going to be very applicable in the workplace as a Microsoft 365 co-pilot comes to to Bear if you're a leader in this space what this really means is it is too important to leave AI in the hands of technologists you need to take an active role in the business leadership of understanding how and where these are going to change your employee communication strategies and and Technology changes there how it's going to address and affect your employee collaboration strategies and how it's going to affect your employee management strategies there's a a very real impact that this is going to have it already is having for most customers today and so we need to address that you can no longer lag behind because again I cannot express this enough it's like 50 is pretty much the average of productivity gain or benefit that somebody else gets when they use these tools versus your team and your staff you will be outperformed in the market and you'll be under too much to rest in change that so that's an important one now if you're a technologist and you're just learning about this and you maybe aren't as familiar with AI That's okay what this really means is that we need to think about our other Investments like low code and how we build Solutions and things like that and how are they are being optimized with copilot and other tools and we need to think about how that's now going to translate to the way in which we interact and engage and work with our employees a lot of it is about enablement sure as a starting point but then it becomes a really important discussion around governance around digital dexterity if you think of digital skills a lot of us have been focusing on teaching people how to use Excel better how to use PowerPoint better how to use Outlook better and teams better now the shift needs to change where it needs to be about not just how to do those things but more importantly how to use AI to do those things for you and that will absolutely change the way it works within organizations the way we communicate and the way that we provide value to the business I hope this has been helpful for you I know there's a lot of information out there but I just wanted to share the way that I would talk about this with other Executives who are asking me this exact question now that it's public they have all these questions about it I would start with this point and then we get into like nuanced details right of exactly how it's going to affect like your internet strategy or how it's going to affect you know your meeting management solution sets and things like that so again thanks so much for your attention I hope this was helpful
