Welcome to Perspectives — the series where your real business challenges take center stage, explored alongside the Microsoft leaders working to solve them. In Episode 2, host Stephanie Cronin sits down with Ashvini Sharma (with a special appearance by Ryan Cunningham!), to tackle one of the most universal challenges facing organizations today: How do you stop spending so much time on documents and focus on the work that actually matters? From rethinking whether documents need to exist at all, to building intelligent apps and agents that bypass manual processes, this episode explores what it takes to reclaim your team's time — and their focus. What You'll Hear: * Why Ashvini's first move with document overload is to ask: "Do you really need those documents, or can you have different processes instead?" * How Copilot Studio and the Power Platform let you replace manual document workflows with intelligent apps, agents, and automations * Two key scenarios: using AI to summarize and synthesize information across Teams, SharePoint, and Outlook — and automating business process documents end to end * Ryan Cunningham's challenge to every organization: "Where are the places where we're spending the most time on the least impactful content?" * Why thinking about the platform as an end-to-end system — combining apps, agents, and automations — is the key to applying AI where it adds the most value Have a business challenge you want us to unpack?
