AI is changing how work gets done.
Your competitors are experimenting with AI right now, whether you are or not. Leaders don't need to become AI experts.
They need enough AI literacy to recognize opportunities, ask better questions, manage risk, and lead change.
In this two-hour, in-person workshop, you'll put AI to work and gain a clearer understanding of where AI fits in your organization—and where it doesn't.
This isn't a two-hour lecture about AI
During this hands-on session, you'll use AI on the kinds of knowledge work you already do and explore how it can fit into larger organizational workflows.
The workshop materials specifically call for participants to work on their own material—including drafting emails, summarizing reports, preparing for meetings, and analyzing information.
