An employee pastes a sensitive contract into ChatGPT to polish the phrasing. It takes five seconds, the result is fantastic, and nobody in IT knows it happened... Except that confidential data just left your security perimeter!

In this episode of Beyond the Feature, I break down the rapid rise of Shadow AI: why it is different from traditional Shadow IT, the alarming metrics around corporate data exposure, and how to stop data leaks without shutting down employee productivity.

Is your nonprofit struggling to stretch every dollar while using outdated software and spreadsheets? Most mission-driven organizations are missing out on thousands of dollars in free and discounted software grants every year simply because nobody told them these programs exist.

In this episode of Beyond the Feature, we break down the "Nonprofit Tech Gap", which is shifting the focus from funding shortages to awareness solutions. We walk through eligibility steps for major software grants, explain recent 2026 changes to Microsoft nonprofit licensing, and describe how to securely deploy enterprise-grade AI without risking confidential donor or client data.

Digital Decluttering is about making our use of tools and time manageable. I wrote a book recently called Digital Lagom (available on Amazon, link below). Lagom is a Swedish word meaning just right. Enough to do the job. Not too little, but also not too much. This podcast episode is mostly about addressing the too much part, because nowadays too little is not really a problem anymore. But finding that balance is the trick!

Power Automate is part of the Microsoft 365 ecosystem of apps, and is often overlooked. Today we are going to go over what it is, and why to use it. We have a few examples, so that maybe it might spur some ideas on how you too can integrate into your workflow!

An emerging concept in AI is the always on presence that sits as the chief of staff as your work, an Autopilot. In Microsoft, this tool is called Scout. While it is not generally available yet, it is time to start thinking about how this autopilot fits into our work, our environment, and our culture, and start the change management preparation for those ripples. While chat is prompt based, and Cowork, is task based, Scout continues the evolution to always on and partnering with your work. This podcast episode is an explanation into how it may fit in organizations and how to mentally prepare for it's arrival.

You may have seen at the top of your M365 that there is a new option. If your organization has a copilot license for you, you may have seen a toggle at the top between copilot chat and now cowork. Or you may have heard cowork mentioned somewhere. Well, this episode describes what Cowork is, what makes it different than just chat, and how it can be used. This is a direction that more AI is moving towards, along with Scout (which we will talk about in a future episode!). But for now, let's explore Cowork.

You can either fight against the waves, or learn how to surf. This episode explores the wave of AI and why it is better not to fight against it, but to learn about it to shape how it is best used. Responsible AI is not just there, it has to be learned, and regular opportunities for lerning about the tool will help the worker or student understand how they can not be replaced by AI, but can enhance their understanding and value by being the human in the room!
