While the permissions setting features in Teams and SharePoint are robust, most employees do other work for their roles and permissions setting is not their expertise.

Today's episode tells you how to not only ensure the correct people always have access while the rest are denied entry, it also tells you how to eliminate that churn you experience when somebody needs access legitimately. Using these best practices, you'll eliminate much of the work involved with permissions.

In this episode, Annie explores how to turn Microsoft Copilot from a simple digital assistant into a true game-changer for your organization.

Annie emphasizes the importance of building a shared, strategic workspace where information is accessible and collaboration thrives, unlocking Copilot’s full potential. She reassures listeners that Copilot keeps company data private and secure, only using it within the boundaries of your organization. Annie also offers practical guidance on deploying Copilot effectively. She advises starting with a paid Copilot license for an innovative leader, enabling them to pave the way for broader adoption. Before rolling out Copilot company-wide, she stresses the necessity of solidifying Teams and SharePoint permissions to prevent unintentional access to sensitive information.

Teams is a great method to save and share workgroup files, but what about policies and procedures? Well, not so much...not out-of-the-box, anyway.
