Introducing Microsoft Copilot. Copilot is integrated into Microsoft 365. It works alongside you, embedded in the Microsoft 365 apps you use every day — Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams and more — to unleash creativity, unlock productivity and improve skills.

With Copilot, you’re always in control. You decide what to keep, modify or discard. Now, you can be more creative in Word, more analytical in Excel, more expressive in PowerPoint, more productive in Outlook and more collaborative in Teams.

Each month I will focus on the benefits of Co-pilot for each individual application starting with Microsoft Teams below.

Microsoft Co-pilot is an innovative tool that uses artificial intelligence to help people collaborate more effectively in Teams meetings. It is a powerful tool that has the potential to change the way we work together in virtual meetings.

Below are the key benefits Microsoft Co-pilot can offer inside Microsoft Teams.

1. Microsoft Co-pilot can help to increase productivity in Teams meetings. With its AI-powered algorithms, Co-pilot can suggest actions and provide recommendations to the team members in real-time. This can help to ensure that meetings are more productive and efficient, as participants can focus on the content of the meeting rather than administrative tasks such as note-taking and scheduling.
2. Microsoft Copilot can help to improve collaboration among team members. The tool can automatically suggest actions based on the context of the meeting, such as scheduling follow-up meetings, assigning action items, or sharing relevant documents. This can help to ensure that team members are on the same page and are working towards the same goals.
3. Microsoft Co-pilot can help to reduce the time spent on administrative tasks in Teams meetings. By automating the routine tasks such as scheduling and note-taking, Co-pilot can free up team members to focus on more important tasks such as brainstorming and problem-solving. This can help to ensure that meetings are more productive and that team members are using their time more efficiently.
4. Finally, Microsoft Co-Pilot can help to improve the quality of Teams meetings. By providing real-time feedback and suggestions, Co-pilot can help to ensure that meetings are well-structured and that team members are engaged and contributing to the discussion. This can help to ensure that
5. meetings are more effective and that the outcomes of the meetings are of higher quality. To summarise, Microsoft Co-pilot is a powerful tool that can help to improve collaboration, productivity, and the quality of Teams meetings. By automating routine tasks and providing real-time feedback and suggestions, Co-pilot can help to ensure that meetings are more effective and that team members are able to focus on high-value tasks.

In the months ahead, Microsoft are bringing Copilot to all productivity apps—Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, Viva, Power Platform, and more. We’ll share more on pricing and licensing soon. Look out for my blog next month on how Co-pilot can help you inside Word.
