Practical AI For Managers And Team Leaders

Managers are the layer of the organization where AI strategy meets execution. Whether you are evaluating a new AI-enabled tool, redesigning a workflow, retraining a team, or interviewing a candidate whose résumé reads differently than it would have two years ago, your ability to make sound decisions about AI shapes your team's effectiveness and your organization's pace of adoption.

This workshop equips working managers with the conceptual foundation, practical frameworks, and operational vocabulary needed to lead AI adoption at the team level. Through a combination of interactive instruction, AI-powered exercises, and case discussions with fellow participants, participants build skills they can apply immediately to their team's workflows, hiring, and planning.

Choosing a tool is the smallest part of AI adoption. The durable skills are design, change management, and judgment, and they benefit from structured practice.

Participants will learn AI management techniques to:

• Identify high-leverage AI applications in your function or workflow
• Evaluate AI vendor claims and product roadmaps with technical and economic literacy
• Design AI-augmented workflows that integrate cleanly with existing processes
• Lead change management for AI adoption, including hiring, training, and team structure
• Implement appropriate guardrails for safety, audit, and accountability
• Measure the return on AI investments using metrics meaningful to your function
