Artificial Intelligence is rapidly changing the way organizations operate — and the conversation is moving far beyond ChatGPT. This engaging and practical session is designed for business owners, executives, managers, entrepreneurs, and community leaders who want to better understand how AI is reshaping the future of work and what it means for their organizations.

We'll explore how businesses are beginning to move beyond simple AI prompting into a new era of:
• Workflow automation
• AI-powered operations
• Productivity and efficiency tools
• Decision support and data analysis
• Customer experience enhancements
• Process redesign
• And emerging AI agents that can assist with increasingly complex tasks

In addition to the presentation, attendees will hear directly from local business leaders who are already integrating AI into their operations, workflows, marketing, customer service, and decision-making processes. This panel discussion will provide practical, real-world perspectives on what's working, leadership implications of AI adoption, including how leaders can thoughtfully navigate change, prepare teams, identify opportunities, and remain competitive in a rapidly evolving business environment.

Whether you are AI-curious or already experimenting with tools like ChatGPT, this presentation will help you better understand the broader AI landscape, separate hype from reality, and identify practical opportunities for your business or organization.

No technical background required. Register now to secure your spot at the summit!
