Meetings are everywhere, all the time (and all at once?). For many teams, they’ve become the default place where work happens, making it harder to find time for focused progress.

AI promised to fix this for us. And while Microsoft Copilot can help, it isn’t a silver bullet. Copilot works best when you integrate it into day-to-day ‘doing’, supported by clear processes, sensible guidelines, and the right productivity toolkit around it.

In this session, Lyndsay and Ben will explore how to reduce meeting overload by shifting more work back outside the meeting and using Copilot to make the meetings you do need more effective.

They will cover:

• The Microsoft 365 productivity tools Copilot relies on, and how it adds value when you use the tools effectively
• Practical ways to work with Copilot before, during, and after meetings without losing accountability
• The processes and guardrails that turn Copilot from a novelty email polisher into a productivity accelerator

You’ll leave with practical ideas for creating momentum outside meetings, cutting unnecessary follow-ups, and making the meetings you need shorter, sharper, and more purposeful.

(Which, who are we kidding, just leaves space in your diary for MORE meetings to be added! Hey we can’t fix everyone else for you too!)
