Description
This workshop is part of the Digital High Growth Academy.

Embedding AI Workflows into your Growth Strategy:
High-growth businesses eventually hit operational bottlenecks as manual processes, inconsistent decision-making, and siloed knowledge begin to drag down productivity and efficiency.

AI is now mature enough to automate and accelerate these processes but knowing where to start and how to do it safely can be overwhelming.

This practical and highly interactive workshop demystifies AI automation and shows you how to embed AI workflows directly into your growth strategy. You’ll discover where workflows can deliver the biggest impact, learn how to design them, and build your first workflow during the session. You’ll leave knowing exactly how AI can scale your business without scaling your workload.
Overview
Who should attend?
Leaders, founders, operations managers, marketers, finance teams, and product owners from high-growth organisations who want to embed AI into their processes to improve efficiency, consistency and scalability. No prior knowledge of AI or automaton is required.
