I grew an enterprise Copilot rollout from 300 to 10,000 people: the training, the governance, and the unglamorous work of making a new tool stick. If you want AI advice without the hype, you're in the right place.

WE:AI · working expertise, amplified impact
You bring the expertise. AI extends your reach. My job is matching the tool to the actual problem, and telling you when the answer isn't AI.
Not every problem needs AI. Some need a better spreadsheet, a shorter meeting, or a decision. I'll tell you which.
Tools that fit how work already happens. If it needs hours of training to survive first contact, it won't.
From one-on-one coaching to rooms of hundreds. Practical skills, honest limits, and five-minute games instead of lectures.
Adoption numbers are easy to inflate. We'll pick measures that reflect real work getting easier, then actually check them.
Models and products change like the weather. A rollout isn't finished at launch; it needs maintenance like any good tool.
The work so far
A pilot proves an idea works in a friendly room. Scale proves it survives ten thousand real jobs, a couple of reorgs, and a model that changes every month.
Grew Microsoft 365 Copilot across a global consultancy from a 300-person pilot to 10,000 users: governance, training, champion communities, and the messy middle nobody writes about.
Led a dedicated GenAI team spanning governance, business solutions, user training, and champions. Those are the parts that make adoption last after the announcement email.
University capstones, executive briefings, technical workshops. Same honest message, matched to the room.
What worked, what didn't, and hands-on labs you can run yourself. Written while it's happening, not after the case study got polished.
AI didn't create the incentive to look busy... it dropped the cost to zero. Same tool, opposite outcomes, because it amplifies what people already believe gets rewarded. So stop hauling the slop away as garbage and start reading it as a map: wherever it concentrates, your incentives are talking. Here's how to listen — and why your unread docs belong in a compost heap, not a landfill.
Two counterintuitive moves that drove 97% Copilot adoption - recruiting your loudest skeptics and replacing your training program with a five-minute game.
Microsoft built their most ambitious agentic feature on Anthropic's technology. The 'who copied who' debate misses the point. The real challenge is helping thousands of professionals shift from asking AI questions to directing AI work.
The third hands-on lab in my community resource series gives you a deliberately wrecked spreadsheet and walks you through fixing it with Edit with Copilot - one problem at a time, then all at once. Includes a practice file you can download and break yourself.
Stay in the loop
