Imagine you're working on a legal case or preparing a business strategy, and you need to create a presentation. Traditionally, you might start by jotting down your ideas on paper or typing them into a document. Microsoft Copilot in Microsoft 365 offers a new way to streamline this process. Think of Copilot as a digital assistant that helps you draft the outline of your presentation.
Once Copilot generates this outline, you can now make edits and collaborate with your team in a digital workspace called a "Page" before you even create the actual PowerPoint slides. This is similar to how you might first discuss and refine a legal argument or business plan with colleagues before presenting it to a client or stakeholders.
The "Page" acts like a shared digital whiteboard where everyone can contribute their thoughts and make changes in real-time. It's as if you're all in the same room, scribbling on a large piece of paper, except it's all happening online. This feature is particularly useful because it allows for input and collaboration from multiple people, ensuring that the final presentation is polished and comprehensive before it's turned into a formal PowerPoint deck.
In essence, this change allows for a more collaborative and efficient way to prepare presentations, saving time and reducing the need for back-and-forth email exchanges or meetings. It's about making the initial stages of presentation creation more interactive and inclusive, much like brainstorming sessions in a conference room, but with the added convenience of digital tools.
