EMPOWER Masterclass
A free Masterclass for Information Leaders
Most organisations already have Microsoft 365 but very few are using it effectively.
Add AI into the mix — and suddenly information leaders are being asked to answer questions around risk, readiness, governance, and accountability… often without a clear framework to support those decisions.
This masterclass changes that…
What This Masterclass Is About?
This session is not about adding more policies or more tools.
It’s about giving you a practical, leadership-driven way to manage information across your organisation — so governance actually works.
Using the EMPOWER 7-pillar framework, you’ll learn how to bring together:
• Information management
• Microsoft 365
• AI readiness
• Governance and compliance
Into one clear, structured approach.
What You’ll Learn
In this session, you’ll explore the 7 pillars that underpin effective information leadership:
• Engagement — Why governance fails when people aren’t brought with you
• Management — How clarity of ownership changes everything
• Process — Turning theory into practical, usable processes
• Oversight — Building confidence through risk, audit, and visibility
• Workforce — Creating capability across your organisation
• Excellence — Raising standards and professional credibility
• Resources — Making better use of Microsoft 365, AI, and existing tools.
Why This Matters
Most governance approaches fail because they are:
• Too focused on compliance
• Too disconnected from the business
• Too reliant on tools to fix people problems
This masterclass helps you move to a model that is:
• Practical
• People-led
• Focused on real outcomes
Who This Workshop Is For
This masterclass is designed for:
• Information Leaders
• Records Managers
• Governance Professionals
• Microsoft 365 leads
Anyone responsible for managing information, data, or risk
What You’ll Leave With
You’ll leave with:
• A clear understanding of where your organisation is today
• Insight into what is holding your governance back
• A simple way to prioritise your next steps
• Greater confidence in leading information, not just managing it
Your Next Step
At the end of the session, you’ll be invited to take the EMPOWER Scorecard.
