“The focus on real workflows and client needs kept the session grounded. We left with a clearer sense of what AI could support and more confidence to explore applications in our own business.”
“The distinction between asking AI a question and building the tools to support a workflow was particularly useful. The exercise gave us a practical way to think about where AI could fit into our operations.”
“The examples connected directly to our work. Exploring agents and AI in the context of our workflows and client needs made the session relevant and gave us ideas worth taking back to our teams.”
“The hands-on format gave business and technology leaders a shared basis for discussing AI and it's impact. Building together made the possibilities—and the implementation questions—much more concrete.”
“Working against a deadline pushed us to collaborate, make decisions, and try something unfamiliar. The environment encouraged questions and experimentation, which made the challenge both productive and energizing.”
“The discussion balanced the possibilities of AI with the governance considerations that come with using it in a business context. That balance helped frame responsible adoption as part of the opportunity from the outset.”
“The session helped sharpen our thinking about where AI could support a business process beyond answering individual questions. Testing that distinction through a practical exercise made it one of the most valuable discussions of the session.”
