Q7: Looking three to five years out, what is your bold prediction for how Microsoft’s AI strategy reshapes how organizations define productivity, value, or work itself? #CollabTalk
Q6: Fast forward to the end of 2026. What Microsoft 365 or Copilot capability will feel obvious in hindsight but sounds bold or unrealistic today? #CollabTalk
Q5: Not every role benefits equally from AI. Which teams or roles gained the most from Microsoft’s 2025 roadmap, and which struggled to keep up with the pace of change? #CollabTalk
Q4: AI and agents exposed a lot of organizational cracks this year. What governance or risk issue caught the most teams off guard in 2025, and which one do you think we are still underestimating? #CollabTalk
A2: I'm not seeing very much Copilot in my clients, tending to be engaged by internal comms or content teams.
From what I've seen, though, there's a long way to go. Employees have embarrasedly said they'd put something into ChatGPT, and managers been unable to push back.
#collabTalk
Q3: Agents took center stage in 2025. From research to task automation, what is the first real business problem you believe Microsoft agents will truly solve at scale in 2026? #CollabTalk
A2 Most people ignore advanced features and stick with simple prompts. Low friction beats high capability every time. #CollabTalk
Q2: Copilot is no longer new and is everywhere. What surprised you most about how people actually used Copilot in 2025 versus how Microsoft or the community expected it to be used? #CollabTalk
A1 The shift is more organizational, not technical. AI is forcing companies to confront governance debt, skills gaps, and broken processes all at once. #CollabTalk
Q1: Looking back at 2025, what was the single most important shift in the Microsoft ecosystem, and why will we still be talking about it three years from now? Tech, culture, adoption, or business model. #CollabTalk
