Orlando is about to get a lot smarter. Next week, the Microsoft 365 Community Conference brings together the brightest minds in the digital workplace, and 2toLead will be right in the middle of it. Kanwal Khipple and Richard Plantt will both be on stage, and the session lineup this year is genuinely one of the strongest we've seen.
This isn't just a Microsoft event. It's a community event, built by practitioners, for practitioners. Whether you're deep into Copilot rollouts, rethinking your intranet, or just starting to explore what agents can do for your organization, there's a session (or ten) with your name on it.
We've gone through the full session catalog and pulled together the 10 we're most excited about, counting down to the one we wouldn't miss for anything. These are curated through the lens of what we care about most: the digital workplace, SharePoint, Copilot, and agents.
Pro Tips for Navigating M365Con:
Every organization is asking whether Copilot is actually delivering value. Kanwal breaks down how to measure it in a way that resonates with the business, not just IT. If you're building the case for Copilot investment, this one is for you.
Accessibility is a design philosophy, not a checkbox. This session covers what it really means to design inclusive experiences in SharePoint and Microsoft 365, with practical tips you can bring back and apply right away.
Microsoft | Jojo Wright, Karuana Gatimu
Adoption is always the last mile, and it's often the hardest one. Karuana Gatimu and Jojo Wright are two of the most trusted voices in the Microsoft 365 community, and this session tackles the practical side of getting people to actually use Copilot and agents in their day-to-day work. Adoption is a core part of what we do at 2toLead, so this one is non-negotiable for us.
Community | Matt Wade, Sean Bugler
Honesty is refreshing, and this title delivers it. Not every Copilot story is a success story, and that's exactly what makes this session valuable. Hearing real-world perspectives from community practitioners, including what hasn't worked, is the kind of grounded insight that helps organizations make smarter decisions. Matt Wade is a voice we always pay attention to.
Community | Jim Brown
The phrase "agentic workforce" is something we're going to be hearing a lot more of. This session asks the forward-looking question that every digital workplace team needs to be thinking about: is your intranet ready for a world where AI agents are active participants in how work gets done? This is the kind of strategic framing that helps teams make a compelling case for modernization.
Community | Susan Hanley
Susan Hanley is one of the most respected voices in the SharePoint and intranet community, full stop. This session combines best practices with the latest capabilities in Microsoft 365, which makes it one of the most practically useful sessions on the schedule. If you're working on intranet modernization, this is a goldmine.
Community | Vlad Catrinescu
SharePoint Advanced Management (SAM) is quickly becoming foundational for organizations preparing their environments for Copilot and agents. In this deep dive, Vlad Catrinescu breaks down what’s new in SAM for 2026, how it fits into modern governance strategies, and where it delivers real value at scale. For anyone responsible for SharePoint administration, lifecycle management, or AI readiness, this session promises both clarity and practical takeaways.
Microsoft | Ben Summers, Caroline Stanford
Work IQ is quietly becoming one of the more important capabilities in the Microsoft 365 ecosystem, and this featured session connects the dots between Copilot, agents, and measurable workplace productivity. This is the kind of session that helps us advise clients on the real "so what" behind their Copilot investment, and we're looking forward to bringing those insights back.
Microsoft | Matt Brodsky
The "digital front door" has been a cornerstone concept in intranet design for years, but Copilot changes everything about how employees navigate and consume information. Matt Brodsky is exactly the right person to talk about where this is heading, and the intersection of intranet design and AI-powered experiences is squarely in our wheelhouse at 2toLead.
Microsoft | Soniya Gadgil
Knowledge management has always been the hard problem in the digital workplace. People can't use what they can't find. This session explores how agents and AI are finally starting to solve that problem inside SharePoint in a meaningful way. For anyone building or managing SharePoint environments, this one has serious practical value.
Microsoft | Cory Newton-Smith, Julie Seto
SharePoint is the foundation of the digital workplace for most organizations, and this featured session is going to show what AI in SharePoint actually looks like in practice. From pages to sites to libraries, this is where we'll get a clear picture of where Microsoft is taking the platform and how AI is being woven into the everyday SharePoint experience. Essential for anyone who builds, manages, or advises on SharePoint.
Microsoft | Jeff Teper, Maral Taak, Jon Wear
This is the one. Jeff Teper has been the driving force behind SharePoint and Microsoft 365 for decades, and whenever he takes the stage at this conference, the room pays attention. With agents now becoming a core part of the Microsoft 365 story, we're expecting significant announcements around the future of SharePoint, Copilot, and how agentic AI is going to reshape the digital workplace as we know it. This keynote sets the tone for everything else at the conference, and frankly, for the rest of the year.
The energy around this year's conference is different. Agents aren't just a concept anymore. They're becoming part of the fabric of how Microsoft 365 works, and M365Con 2026 is where that story gets told in full.
Whether you're just starting your Copilot journey or you're deep into building agentic workflows, there's something at this conference for you. Come find us at our sessions, connect in the hallways, and let's talk about what the future of the digital workplace looks like for your organization.
Which sessions are on your must-attend list? We'll be sharing live updates from the conference all week, and stay tuned for a full post-conference recap coming shortly after the event.
