Copilot Champions and Adoption Mentorship
You have Microsoft 365 Copilot in the business. Now you need a champions network and an adoption programme that people actually follow. This mentorship equips you to run adoption with confidence, cadence, and measurable outcomes.
A ready-to-run adoption plan with a 90-day rollout calendar
A champions network that drives real usage through stories and peer learning
Usage uplift plus an exec-ready impact story that protects the licence investment
Designed for organisations with 10+ staff. Delivered across New Zealand and Australia.
Copilot adoption stalls when champions and cadence are missing
Many organisations buy licences, run initial training, then see uneven usage and little momentum. Champions and a clear weekly rhythm solve the gap by turning Copilot into everyday habits and repeatable wins
You have been given adoption responsibility, but not a proven playbook
Champions exist informally, but there is no system to spread success
Leadership wants proof of value, not activity
Built for the internal Copilot Adoption Lead
This mentorship is for the person responsible for Copilot adoption, supported by a small internal squad if needed (2–5 people) to help with comms, enablement, and coordination.
Copilot Adoption Lead, Enablement Lead, Adoption and Change Lead, Digital Workplace Adoption Lead, Modern Work Adoption Lead, Transformation Lead.
