ABOUT THE SESSION
Rolling out Microsoft 365 Copilot isn’t just about turning on a licence. Organisations need a clear, structured approach that ensures Copilot works, works safely, and works in a way that aligns with business goals. Yet this requires admins to operate across traditional scopes and takes in Purview, Teams, SharePoint, Entra and more.
This session walks through our Copilot Admin’s Checklist, separating tasks into Essential (required for Copilot to function), Desirable (configurations that secure and govern data used by Copilot), and Optional (enhancements that improve control, monitoring, and adoption).
We’ll demystify the process through practical examples drawn from real?world deployments. Attendees will leave with a validated readiness blueprint, a security?first mindset for AI, and a clear route to operational excellence. No guesswork needed, just a dependable checklist supporting a confident Copilot rollout.
