Webinar – Microsoft 365 Business Premium: What Are The Tools You’re Probably Not Using
(But Should Be)
Wednesday, 15 July | 10:00-10:30 AM | Online
Microsoft 365 Business Premium is one of the most powerful, and most underutilised, tools in the modern business toolkit. Most businesses use less than 20% of what’s included. Join us to discover the tools, security features, and AI capabilities that could transform how your team works.
Most Kiwi businesses use it for email, Word, and the occasional Teams call. But there’s a whole layer of capability sitting right there in your subscription that could save time, strengthen security, and give your team a genuine competitive edge.
In this practical webinar, the Kinetics team will walk you through the features your business is likely missing, with no jargon, no fluff, just real tools with real business value.
What we’ll cover:
- Beyond the Office Suite — Apps and tools included in your subscription that most businesses have never opened, from Microsoft Lists and Planner to Forms and Bookings
- Security you already own — How Business Premium’s built-in security tools compare to standalone products, and why activating them matters right now
- Microsoft 365 Secure Network — What it is, how it protects your team (especially remote workers), and how to turn it on
- Microsoft Secure AI Chat — How to use AI tools within Microsoft 365 safely, keeping your business data private and protected
- Copilot and AI productivity — What’s available now, what’s coming, and how to start getting value from AI features without the risk
- New Microsoft Teams features — The updates you may have missed, and how they can improve the way your team collaborates
- Quick wins in the Office Suite — Hidden or overlooked features in Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint that genuinely save time
Whether you manage IT for your business, lead a team, or just want to get more from your technology investment, this session is designed for you.
Who should attend:
Business owners, managers, and anyone responsible for productivity and technology decisions in their organisation. No technical background required.
Keen to learn more? Bring a question — we’ll leave time for a quick Q&A at the end
We look forward to having you attend the event!
