THE BEST MICROSOFT COPILOT PROMPTS TO USE IN TEAMS 💬
1. Reply drafter (use in any chat where you’re stuck on wording)
Act as a clear, friendly colleague. Draft a reply to the latest message in this chat that answers every question asked and moves things forward. Use the thread history for context and keep my usual tone. Max 80 words, UK English, no jargon or corporate filler. Give me one ready-to-send reply plus a shorter alternative. Before finalising, check every question is answered, any commitments match what I’ve said before, and nothing reads as passive-aggressive.
2. Friday status update (use in Copilot chat in Teams)
You’re my team lead writing for senior stakeholders. Turn my Teams chats, meetings and shared files from this week into a status update. Focus on progress, blockers and next week’s priorities. Under 150 words, UK English, confident but factual. Use three headed sections: done, blocked (with what I need and from whom), and next. Before finalising, check each point is backed by real activity, nothing is overstated, and every blocker names an owner.
3. “What did we decide?” finder
Act as my research assistant. Find what was agreed about [topic] across my Teams chats, channels and meeting recaps from the last month. Prioritise the most recent decision if things changed. Be factual, no guessing, UK English. Give me the current decision in one sentence, then a short timeline of how it evolved with dates, who decided and a link to each source. Before finalising, check for any later message that reverses the decision and say clearly if nothing was agreed.
