• Have you any idea what AI can do for your business?
• Are you aware of the huge opportunities it can create for you?
• Would you like to embrace its power and gain a real competitive advantage?

Harnessing AI's potential can help revolutionise your decision-making, streamline your operations, improve your productivity, create better customer experiences, maximise your marketing and open new avenues for innovation and help you create real competitive advantage. But, how do you do that?

Well, we've teamed up with a group of fantastic local experts from , , and to provide you with practical tools and techniques aimed specifically at business leaders like you. We ran 3 programmes earlier this year that were oversubscribed with local business leaders and the great news is that... 100% of participants were ‘Completely Happy’ with the programmes and 100% said it ‘Met’ (35%) or ‘Exceeded’ (65%) their expectations.

The even better news is that...

We’ve been asked by the South Yorkshire Skills Bank to help more local forward thinking businesses in the Barnsley and surrounding areas grasp the basics of AI, identify what it can do for them and take the right steps to actually do it! This interactive and stimulating 90 minute session will introduce you and other local business leaders to the ‘business basics’ of AI and its business practical applications.

it will also provide you with:

• An overview of AI – blowing away the buzz words and dispelling the myths.
• Real examples of local businesses like yours who are already making it work for them.
• Ideas on how you can do that too.
• A self assessment diagnostic tool to see how you ‘measure up’ in the areas that count.
• The opportunity to develop your own personal 'AI ImplementAtIon' Plan.

You’ll meet our local experts and carry out a self assessment to help you identify how ‘AI Ready’ you and your business are and what steps you need to take to move things forward. They’ll work with you to guide you through the process and the result will be your own personalised 'AI ImplementAtIon Plan'. There’s also an opportunity for you to enrol your business on a heavily subsidised 4 session programme that will help you make that plan work.

• The AI Fundamentals: Grasp the basics of AI technologies and their applications in business.
• Strategic Integration: Learn how to strategically integrate AI into your business processes and operations in areas such as improving sales and marketing effectiveness, delivering personalised customer experiences, maximising your customer relationships, managing your people and improving productivity and profitability

• Real ‘How To’s’: Explore real-world case studies of successful AI implementations in businesses like yours and get the tools to do the job.

Throughout the Taster session, there’ll be..

• Opportunities to ask questions and deal with your own business ‘specifics’
• Signposts to practical and proven tools you can implement in your business.
• Extra resources for further learning, and tools to make this stuff work.
