Would love to hear thoughts from the team leaders and managers of the group on how they are justifying the ROI of integrating yet another Copilot [or any other Al productivity tool] for their team/employees?

Definitely calculate time savings x hourly rate to get cost savings. Then compare to price of the tool. Make sure to also factor in any productivity gains beyond just the direct time savings. And don't forget softer benefits like improved morale if the AI reduces tedious work! Quantifying all that can be tricky but worth doing to get the full picture on ROI.

To calculate ROI, start by estimating the time saved using the AI tool compared to manual processes. Multiply this by the average hourly rate of your employees to gauge cost savings. Then, compare these savings to the tool's cost.

Consider both tangible and intangible benefits. Calculate productivity gains and reduced errors, and also factor in improved employee satisfaction and reduced turnover if the AI tool makes their jobs easier.
