5 Steps for Driving Sustainable User Adoption of Your Copilot Investment
Every Copilot rollout starts with a buzz. Then reality hits. Users drift back to old habits, the "results" feel underwhelming, and leadership starts asking the uncomfortable question: where's the ROI on what we just paid for?
If that sounds like your organization, you're not failing. You're at the exact point where most Copilot deployments stall. The gap isn't the technology. It's the absence of a system to drive activation after the launch hype fades.
This session skips the theory and hands you a practical framework built on five pillars of sustainable adoption: the "Adoption as a Service" model, designing rollouts around what users actually care about (WIIFM), tactical leadership involvement that goes beyond a kickoff email, and more. These are the moves high-growth organizations use to close the activation gap and turn licenses into measurable behavior change.

- How to map a real workflow in your job and build prompts around it
- Simple governance rules to stay safe and compliant
You'll leave with five reusable prompts, a mapped workflow you can run immediately, and a practical governance checklist, plus the confidence to use Copilot effectively in your daily work.
10 Microsoft Copilot Scenarios That Deliver Real ROI for Your Information Workers
Your employees already have access to Microsoft Copilot across Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, and Outlook, but most aren't using it in ways that move the needle. Leaders know the licenses are paid for, yet the measurable productivity lift often feels invisible. The challenge isn't the technology. It's helping employees understand what's in it for them and how Copilot can directly improve their daily flow of work.
This session shows you 10 practical, real-world scenarios that drive actual results inside the Microsoft 365 apps your teams already live in. You'll see examples that shorten report creation in Word, automate analysis in Excel, refine presentations in PowerPoint, summarize meetings in Teams, manage communication overload in Outlook, and help your sales team close deals faster in Dynamics 365 CRM. Beyond the features, we'll focus on adoption tactics, success metrics, and the leadership actions that turn Copilot from shelfware into impact.

Reduce SharePoint and M365 Support Tickets by Seeing Real Time Heatmaps and Session Recordings
Stop guessing what your users need and start seeing it. While surveys only tell you what people remember, behavioral analytics show you the truth.
In this session, we will use Microsoft Clarity to see rage clicks, dead clicks, and navigation hurdles in SharePoint and M365 apps with heatmaps and session recordings. You will learn how to turn these insights into better training programs and more efficient support workflows, ultimately reducing your help desk volume and improving digital adoption.
5 Copilot Scenarios Every Dynamics 365 Sales Team Should Be Using
Copilot is already embedded in Dynamics 365, yet many organizations are struggling to see meaningful productivity or revenue impact from it. Expectations are high, but the reality is more complicated. In this session, we'll cut through the marketing noise and take an honest look at where Copilot genuinely adds value inside Dynamics 365 CRM, where it currently falls short, and why simply "turning it on" does not change day-to-day behavior for sales, service, or leadership teams.
We'll focus on how to design practical, workflow-driven CRM experiences where Copilot actually gets used, supporting sellers and service agents in the moments that matter. You'll see real use cases, live examples, and concrete patterns for pairing Copilot with existing CRM processes, along with prompts, guardrails, and adoption principles you can apply immediately. The goal is not to hype AI, but to help you make Copilot a useful, trusted part of how work gets done in Dynamics 365 CRM.
Stop Guessing: See Real-Time User Insights of Your Dynamics 365 CRM / CE Users
Stop guessing how your team uses your Dynamics 365 CRM/CE environment. While surveys provide opinions, real-time behavioral analytics provide the truth. This session demonstrates how to use Microsoft Clarity to pinpoint exactly where users struggle, from "rage clicks" to heat maps and session recordings.
You will learn to identify high-traffic pages and friction points using heat maps while leveraging session recordings and "rage clicks" to troubleshoot support tickets with greater speed and accuracy. You will also discover how to balance these deep behavioral insights with strict data governance and compliance protocols to ensure your analytics strategy remains both effective and secure.
