About the event
We all know that AI isn’t optional anymore, but most conversations are too high-level or too technical to act on. This session is different. No fluff. No theory. Just practical, hands-on exposure to strategies that will directly impact how you work and lead through AI transformation.
For leaders who want to understand the practicalities of bringing AI into the business, managing change and team upskilling.
What You’ll Walk Away With:
· First-Principles Clarity. Strip AI down to what really matters: what it is, how it works, and why it’s reshaping everything from workflows to org charts.
· Real Tools, Live Demos. We’ll walk you through the platforms others are using and that can automate and offload significant portions of workload. You can’t manage transformation and change unless you know the full capability of the tech.
· Study the Wins and the Wrecks. We’ll look at case studies of companies thriving (and failing) in AI adoption. You’ll discuss what held them back—and how to avoid it.
· Build a People-First AI Strategy. AI isn’t a tech problem. It’s a people challenge. You’ll get tools and guidance to influence your team, gain buy-in, and lead a shift in mindset and culture.
If you’re serious about leading into the future—you’ll want to be part of this.
