“Can we just use Copilot for that?”
A sentence being heard in conference rooms everywhere right now.
And sometimes, the answer is absolutely.
But before Copilot becomes part of how your team works every day, there are a few questions worth asking:
1. What company data can Copilot actually access?
If an employee already has access to information they shouldn’t, Copilot can make that information much easier to find.
2. Do we have the right permissions and security controls in place?
Copilot works within your Microsoft 365 environment. That makes your existing data governance even more important.
3. Do employees know what they should—and shouldn't—use Copilot for?
Giving people the tool is the easy part. Giving them clear guidelines for using it is just as important.
Copilot can be incredibly useful - just make sure your Microsoft 365 environment is ready for it first.
