AI is changing the way we work, but here’s the big truth: Copilot becomes far more valuable when people share what works, not when everyone figures things out alone. That’s why creating a Copilot Community inside Viva Engage is one of the simplest, most high‑impact steps any organisation can take to speed up adoption, improve skills, and boost confidence for all employees.
When last did you not work through lunch — 2014? Honestly, between the never‑ending email spirals, back‑to‑back meetings, and that one Excel file that silently judges your life choices, lunch breaks have basically become folklore. Unicorns. Bigfoot. But hey, there’s hope! Copilot is here to help you reclaim those carefree midday moments, you know, when “lunch” meant actual food, not caffeine and mild panic.

This wrap‑up shows how those wins summarized, and why a handful of basic skills in each app make Copilot’s help sharper, safer, and faster. I’ve also linked short, practical resources so you can level up in minutes, not months.
Ever get stuck staring at a blank page or lost in a long report? Copilot in Word is here to help. It can draft, rewrite, summarize, and organize your ideas, so you spend less time struggling and more time getting things done.
With all the options we have these days, it might be confusing to remember where you saved what. Finding your #OneDrive and #SharePoint files is easier than ever before as #Microsoft has been investing heavily into a consistent sharing experience... Continue Reading →
