Here's my 2024 LinkedIn Rewind, by Coauthor.studio

In 2024, digital transformation went beyond technologyโ€”it required resilience and adaptability. From deploying Copilot Studio and automating invoice approvals to building a Contract Management System in three months, the year was marked by impactful innovation. Looking ahead to 2025, the focus shifts to Microsoft Copilot integration, expanding Power Platform solutions, and driving sustainable digital growth.

2024 reminded me that real transformation happens at the intersection of technology and resilience.

What began as a clear roadmapโ€”deploy Copilot Studio, build Power Platform automations, create centralized IT functionsโ€”evolved into something more profound. The year taught me that sustainable digital transformation requires both technical excellence and human perseverance.

Key achievements that shaped our journey:

โ€ข Built and deployed a Contract Management System in 3 months using low-code solutions
โ€ข Automated invoice approval processes, reducing manual work and boosting efficiency
โ€ข Expanded our digital transformation initiatives across multiple business units
โ€ข Created a sustainable IT support model that scales
โ€ข Served as Judge for The Game Changer Awards, supporting next-gen innovators

Three posts that resonated most with our community:

Beyond
technology, this year brought personal challengesโ€”including the unexpected loss of my mom. It reinforced that resilience isn't just about systems; it's about the strength to keep moving forward when faced with the unexpected.

Looking ahead to 2025: Our focus shifts to Microsoft Copilot integration, expanding Power Platform innovations, and building more sustainable digital solutions. The three-year cybersecurity roadmap we developed will guide our strategic growth.

To every business innovator navigating digital transformation: remember that the most sustainable solutions come from balancing technical excellence with human understanding.
