Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Copilot & AI
I’m Leon Armston, a Microsoft 365 Solution Architect and five-time Microsoft MVP. I help you turn your organisational knowledge into answers your people can find and trust, using SharePoint, Copilot and AI.
Where I Can Help
From early advice and architecture through to hands-on delivery, you work directly with me. I design around your people, your content and the way your organisation works day to day.
Consulting Services
Practical advice on technology strategy, AI and Microsoft 365 roadmaps, and solution architecture. I help you assess what you have, plan what comes next and guide delivery.
- Assessments & Reviews
- Digital Transformations
- Stakeholder Management
- Mentoring
- Workshops & Seminars
- Training
- Conference Speaking
-
Copilot & AI
I turn Microsoft 365 Copilot from a licence into something people use: the right use cases, focused pilots, adoption that sticks, and agents grounded in your own content. My AI work goes beyond Microsoft 365: I know Azure and the wider AI landscape, so I can help you pick the right tool, whichever vendor it comes from.
Technical Capabilities- Microsoft 365 Copilot
- Copilot Studio
- Copilot Cowork
- Agents
- Copilot Extensibility
- Microsoft Foundry
- Azure AI Document Intelligence
-
Copilot Readiness & Governance
Copilot doesn’t create oversharing; it exposes it. I help you see what’s exposed and decide what to do about it, from oversharing reports and risk assessments through to permissions, labelling and lifecycle governance.
Technical Capabilities- Oversharing
- Permissions
- Ownership
- Lifecycle
- SharePoint Advanced Management
- Microsoft Purview
- Compliance
-
Migration & Modernisation
I move organisations off file shares, legacy document management or on-premises SharePoint, and redesign the information architecture as part of the move instead of lifting and shifting. You can also bring me in to plan a migration, oversee one that your team or a vendor is running, or advise along the way.
Technical Capabilities- File Shares
- Legacy DMS
- On-Prem SharePoint
- User Readiness
-
Automation & Integration
I learn how your processes work, then automate the manual parts with the right tools across Microsoft 365 and Azure, connecting them to the rest of your business where needed. Deep PowerShell scripting lets me do the repetitive jobs quickly and reliably: bulk changes, provisioning and clean-ups that are slow and error-prone by hand.
Technical Capabilities- PnP PowerShell
- Advanced PowerShell Scripting
- Site/Library Provisioning
- Microsoft Graph
- APIs & Webhooks
- Azure Functions
- Azure Automation
- Logic Apps
- Power Automate
- GitHub Copilot
About Leon
AI is only as good as the content behind it. I help organisations get that content ready, then build SharePoint, Copilot and AI solutions on top.
I’ve spent more than 15 years in SharePoint and Microsoft 365, working across Europe and Australasia. That’s taken me from migrations, information architecture and governance through to search, Content AI, and now Copilot data readiness and agents.
I turn business requirements into technical specifications, then build the solution myself or work alongside your team to deliver it.
I’ve been a Microsoft MVP since 2022 and work closely with the Microsoft product teams, so my advice reflects where the products are heading, not just where they are today.
Outside client work, I speak at community events and user groups across the UK, Europe, North America and Australasia, contribute to PnP open-source projects (PowerShell, Modern Search, SharePoint Skills) and blog at leonarmston.com (opens in a new tab).
