Kick-start your champions network!
In this tutorial, you will immerse yourself in the fascinating world of champions network, guided by two Microsoft MVPs, Karoliina Kettukari and Amanda Sterner. From change management theories to customer cases, lessons learned, and hard research data, this workshop's got you covered. We will tell you all you need to know about building a successful champions network and how to support champions in their invaluable tasks. We will reveal to you the most common pitfalls so that you can avoid them. And we will give you shiny golden stars (really!) to commemorate the most important ideas you'll get during this workshop.
The workshop suits any technology-related change management case, with most of our examples coming from Teams and Copilot adoption projects. You will work with your own organisation's data (in private, of course) with templates and materials we provide. We have a lot of hands-on exercises and facilitated discussions with the workshop group. By the end of this workshop, you will have a concrete action plan to kick off your champions network. Or, if you are a consultant, you now have a framework you can easily utilise with your customers!
We will also provide you with lots of additional reading materials and share all our knowledge of the free champions network and training resources from Microsoft.

• Why you should have a Champions Network
• What are the building blocks of a successful Champions network
• How to ramp up your network - and keep it running!
And you will leave with a concrete action plan!
