Updated: 6 days ago
By Parikshit Khanna, corporate AI trainer, TEDx speaker and founder of Digital Training Jet | Updated 21 October 2026
Quick answer
A Copilot leadership session for Gurugram and Noida executives is a two to three hour working session where leaders decide whether, where and how to roll out Microsoft 365 Copilot: which licences, which pilot group, which three use cases, what data rules and how success will be measured. Parikshit Khanna runs it onsite in Delhi NCR or live online, and you leave with a one-page pilot plan.
Trainer-reported reach: 3,50,000+ professionals since 2020.
Latest Copilot sessions and portfolio: October 2026
Fresh photos from Parikshit Khanna's sessions this month, with his updated portfolio. Every programme below can be run for teams in Delhi NCR, live online or onsite on request. Each Copilot session starts with a licence check: in app Copilot in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams needs a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence, while Copilot Chat is available more widely, so exercises are matched to what your team can actually use.
Session content is refreshed against Microsoft's monthly What's New in Microsoft 365 Copilot updates, so participants practise on features that are live in their tenant.

Frequently asked questions
Why start with leaders?
Licence spend, data access and adoption targets are leadership decisions; staff training works better once they are settled.
What is oversharing risk?
Copilot can surface any file a user already has access to, so loose SharePoint and Teams permissions should be fixed before rollout.
Do we need paid Copilot licences for the workshop?
Not for a first session. Free Copilot Chat covers many tasks; the workshop shows what paid Microsoft 365 Copilot adds inside Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams.
Is this an official Microsoft course?
No. It is an independent, practitioner-led workshop built on your team's tasks. Free official modules are on Microsoft Learn.
How do we book?
WhatsApp +91 99972 13177 or email pkhanna123@gmail.com with your roles, headcount, location and licences.
