Frictionless Work: AI for Employees

Every tool you already use has AI bolted on now. This session is the 60 minutes where someone finally tells you what to actually do with it — no more coaching a chat window until it's faster to just do the task by hand.

The problem

You didn't sign up to become an AI power-user. You just want the tool to work.

What you'll walk away with

A personal AI toolkit you'll actually use Monday morning

01

Three ready-to-use prompts

Built for the kind of repetitive writing and admin work that eats your week — not generic examples, ones you can copy and adapt immediately.

02

A "what goes where" map

A plain-language guide to which of your existing tools' built-in AI is actually worth using, and which ones to ignore.

03

The one habit that fixes most bad AI output

A simple pattern that eliminates the back-and-forth re-prompting that makes people give up on AI tools in the first place.

04

A worksheet to bring to your manager

So the value of the session doesn't stay in your head — it becomes something your team can actually adopt.

The session

60 minutes, start to finish

Why "just prompt it better" isn't the fix

The real reason generic AI tools feel frustrating — and it's not a skill problem.

The tool map

Walking through where AI already lives in your everyday software, and what each one is actually good for.

Live worked examples

Real tasks, prompted and fixed in real time, so you see the process — not just the output.

Build your own cheat sheet

You leave with your three prompts written and ready, not just watched.

Questions

Bring your actual, specific, "does this work for my job" questions.

Is this for you

This is for you if

  • You use AI tools occasionally but inconsistently
  • You want concrete answers, not a strategy lecture
  • You're at any job, in any industry — no technical background needed

Skip it if

  • You already have a solid personal AI workflow
  • You're looking for a governance/policy session — see the Governance Basics workshop instead
  • You want a deep technical build, not a practical toolkit

Questions

What if I can't make either live date?

Every seat includes the recording, so you won't miss the content — just the live Q&A.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Bring a laptop and whatever AI tools you already have access to at work.

Is this nonprofit-specific?

No — this session is built for any employee at any organization.

Two dates. One toolkit you'll actually use.
