What Copilot does for leaders

In the training you work with recognisable management situations and your own documents. These are the four areas where Copilot for management makes the difference.

1

Overview & decision-making

Faster grip on large volumes of information, as the basis for better decisions.

  • Summarise long reports and documents
  • Lay out the pros and cons of options
  • Copilot as a sparring partner for issues
  • Think through scenarios and risks
2

Meetings & follow-up

Walk into the meeting better prepared, with clear follow-up afterwards.

  • Have meeting documents summarised beforehand
  • Draft agendas and discussion points
  • Summarise Teams meetings with action items
  • Capture and share decisions and agreements
3

Communication & leadership

Clear, consistent communication to your team, peers and organisation.

  • Draft organisation-wide updates and announcements
  • Phrase difficult emails and messages
  • Support feedback and conversation prep
  • Tailor the message per audience
4

Steering on data & results

From figures to insight, without depending on a reporting cycle.

  • Have dashboards and reports interpreted
  • Spot trends and anomalies quickly
  • Create management summaries and presentations
  • Keep plans and progress clear
In practice

Examples you can apply the same day

During the training you practise with prompts like these, tailored to your own way of working and documents.

"Summarise this report"

Give the three key conclusions of this 40-page report and what decision is being asked of me.

"Help me prepare this conversation"

Help me prepare a difficult performance conversation: structure, talking points and possible responses.

"Write the team update"

Based on these decisions, draft a clear update for my team, in a positive but businesslike tone.

Your benefits

Why leaders choose this training

No generic story, but a training that matches the daily reality of managers.

With your own documents

You practise with real reports, emails and meeting documents from your own practice, not fictional examples.

Strategic and practical

Not just the buttons, but also: where do you deploy Copilot across the organisation and how do you drive adoption?

Experienced Microsoft trainer

Over 15 years of experience with Microsoft 365 training. Up to date with the latest Copilot features.

Practical information

Everything you need to know

Approach

The training combines short theory moments with extensive hands-on exercises. We use recognisable management situations from your own work environment, so you can apply what you learn the same day.

Prerequisites

Basic knowledge of Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Word, Teams) is recommended. No AI or Copilot experience required. We assess the participants' level during the intake.

Copilot licenses

Full hands-on participation requires an active Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Doesn't your organisation have one yet? We're happy to advise, or you start with the free Copilot Chat.

Materials & aftercare

After the training each participant receives a summary, practical use cases for leaders and a reference card. You can always contact us with questions afterwards.

Tailoring & combination

Want to combine this management training with the full Microsoft 365 Copilot training for your teams? We're happy to put together an organisation-wide programme.

Frequently asked questions

Copilot training for management

For managers, team leads, department heads, directors and executives. No AI experience required; the training starts from the basics and is tailored during the intake.

Both, and preferably together. Leaders who use Copilot themselves drive AI adoption more credibly and effectively. That's why we offer both this management training and trainings for teams, which we combine into one programme.

The management training usually takes a day or a compact half-day, in-company and tailor-made, on-site or online. We match the depth to your agenda and goals.

Full hands-on participation requires a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Without a paid license you can start with the free Copilot Chat; we offer a separate Copilot Chat training for that.

Yes. Since 2 February 2025, the EU AI Act (article 4) requires organisations to ensure AI literacy among employees. As a leader you set the direction for this policy, and that starts with your own knowledge of responsible AI use.
