The problem
AI tools were being adopted unevenly across the team. Enthusiasts had built sophisticated workflows while others weren't sure where to start, and there was no shared vocabulary or place to write down what worked. The gap between the people using AI well and everyone else kept growing.
The approach
I started small with a few people already experimenting with AI and grew it into a weekly cross-team session where anyone could bring a question. It wasn't top-down training. The people doing the work taught each other, while I set the agenda, picked topics (Copilot agents, Power Automate, Copilot Studio, homegrown tooling), and facilitated.
The result
Most of us adopted a second brain for personal knowledge management, and we implemented Power Automate solutions suited to our teams. A few people reached out afterward to thank me for setting it up and accelerating their learning. I'd already set up my own second brain at home; seeing how others applied theirs in their Microsoft work changed how I worked too.
