Week 2 - Pre-Flight Check List and Briefing Week 2 is all about getting Copilot ready and making sure IT and Support teams are ready. Here we do a few things.

Assign licenses to rest of pilot group (or in batches).
Deliver initial training - focussed on Copilot in Teams and Outlook.
Schedule weekly lunch & learns.
Define and organise formal feedback sessions.

Week 3 - Rotate and Take Off: Assuming no delays from the previous stage, this is the first week of full 'hands on' Copilot experience for the Team will require a certain amount of interaction as people get used to the technology, and how it integrates into their day-to-day activities. We then ensure:

Pilot's have a week or so to interact and test out Copilot following guidance and tips shared.
Deliver two lunch and learn sessions and optional AMA sessions.
Remind pilots about feedback and ensure they capture their "a-ha" moments to share with others.

Support the active Copilot pilot ensuring we adhere to the weekly lunch and learns.
Continue to proactive encourage and seek feedback from employees to allow them to share success (a-ha) moments.
Provide additional support to employees as needed (via IT help desk or directly).

Week 8 - Connecting Flight or Journey Home Here we conclude the pilot phase and hand back control to yourselves.
