Next-Level AI: From Chatbot to Business Partner

You have used ChatGPT or Claude to draft an email or answer a quick question. But what if AI could help you think through your biggest business decisions, stress-test your strategy, and work alongside you like a trusted advisor?

This FREE in-person hands-on workshop is for small and medium-sized business owners and professionals who are ready to move beyond basic chatbot use. You will learn how to build a custom AI advisor loaded with your business context, assemble a virtual "advisory team" that can challenge your thinking, and put AI to work on real financial and operational tasks.

You will walk away with practical tools and techniques you can use immediately, not just ideas about what is possible.

What You Will Walk Away With

• The knowledge and techniques to build a custom AI business advisor and virtual advisory
team using ChatGPT, Claude, or both
• Practical experience using AI decision-making frameworks on your real challenges
• An understanding of Claude Skills, Cowork, and agentic AI capabilities

• Confidence in when to trust, verify, and push back on AI output
