Generative AI (GenAI) is rapidly transforming how work gets done, and this hands-on session is designed for adult learners who want to move beyond curiosity and begin applying GenAI in practical, meaningful ways. Through guided exercises using tools such as ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Claude, or Google Gemini, participants will complete real-world tasks while building confidence through immediate application rather than technical complexity. The session focuses on effective prompting, refining AI-generated content, and integrating GenAI into everyday workflows for writing, research, planning, and communication to enhance productivity and creativity. Built as an immersive learning experience, participants will actively practice, iterate, and develop strategies they can use immediately in both their professional and personal work. A laptop or iPad and access to a preferred GenAI tool are required.

- Business Partnership Classes Face-to-Face: "Do Not Confuse Activity With Achievement," John Wooden: Stripping Back the Veneer of Conditioning. Addressing the Problems, Not the Symptoms
-
The Business Partnership Program is a professional development membership designed to help organizations strengthen employee leadership, communication, engagement, motivation, and retention. Through this program, members gain access to a variety of high-quality training opportunities led by nationally and regionally recognized experts. Participants develop practical workplace skills that enhance individual performance, support career growth, and contribute to organizational success through ongoing learning and professional development.
Join us as we take a journey through human development, behavioral conditioning, traumascape and epigenetics as we think about the human standing in front of you. This presentation will look at many of the key variables that are not considered and yet have a profound impact on protecting your business, yourself and your community. Our society has conditioned us to expect immediate results and internalized change and yet everything you have learned to do well has been the product of sustained growth. We want people to modify their behavior to be successful but we have lost our capacity to mentor change. This presentation will identify the barriers and successfully break them down.

As business and HR leaders, we need to stop avoiding tough conversations because you think you are being polite. Many problems in the workplace are often due to not having clear communication. Sometimes we think it is easier to feed people half-truths because we do not want to hurt their feelings when in reality, we are making ourselves feel better.
