Copilot can be an excellent approved route for many workplace tasks, but it is not automatically the right environment for every workload.
Review what users can already see before AI makes that information easier to retrieve.
Identify sensitive, stale or over-shared content and clarify data handling expectations.
Prioritize repeatable work where Copilot can create measurable value.
Define acceptable use, escalation, human review and information boundaries.
Recognize research, IP or highly sensitive workloads that may require private or specially governed AI.
Build examples, champions and measurement around real work rather than generic prompts.
Participants connect technical readiness to human practice.
Permissions, information and policy.
Role-specific use cases.
Training and practical examples.
Champions, measurement and governance.
