Course Objective & Scope
Generative AI can cut presentation and writing time dramatically, yet naive prompting ('make me a slide deck') produces generic, bloated 'AI slop' that hurts credibility. This course teaches how to use LLMs (Claude, ChatGPT, Microsoft 365 Copilot) and AI presentation tools as strategic thinking partners: turning raw notes into SCQA/Pyramid storylines, drafting crisp executive memos, storyboarding slides and simulating tough stakeholder personas before the meeting.
Participants build a reusable AI communication workflow on a real work topic, producing a one-page brief and deck storyboard while preserving their authentic voice.
Who Should Attend?
- Managers and professionals who spend heavy time on decks, memos, proposals and stakeholder updates
- Product managers, consultants, project leads and strategy teams
- Commercial, marketing and corporate communications professionals
- Access to any standard LLM assistant (ChatGPT, Claude or Copilot) is sufficient
Key Takeaways
- Transform messy notes and documents into structured Minto Pyramid and SCQA outlines in minutes
- Eliminate generic AI clichés using custom style prompts and editing guardrails
- Generate Assertion-Evidence slide storyboards and chart briefs rather than walls of bullet text
- Role-play with AI personas (e.g. sceptical CFO, risk-averse legal lead) to stress-test Q&A readiness
- Apply strict data-privacy and verification checks across all AI-assisted communications
