THE PROBLEM
Leaders everywhere are saying the same thing: AI outputs sound generic, feel detached from their brand, and take longer to edit than to write from scratch.
As a result, common frustrations include:
- AI output feels generic and disconnected
- Editing takes longer than writing from scratch
- Brand voice gets lost
- Each prompt works differently every time
- Teams produce inconsistent results
In fact, research shows that 95% of executives are getting no measurable return from AI because they rely on strong human communication skills without the equivalent AI paralanguage that AI systems need to interpret direction clearly.
THE SOLUTION
This AI Workshop shows you how to turn your usual communication cues into clear written instructions, so AI answers with the precision and consistency you expect.
