From Our Students’ Own Words

  • “The frameworks presented are practical for use in real scenarios”

    In Kavita’s workshops, the business case for AI is successfully broken down into manageable elements. The frameworks presented are practical for use in real scenarios without the need for advanced technical know-how. A key takeaway is the ability to demystify what AI is and isn’t suited for, and to present new ideas to key stakeholders within a business setting.

  • “Both workshops were extremely well received.”

    Kavita delivered two dynamic workshops on AI opportunity identification and AI strategy development as part our micro-credential on data science and AI for supply chain managers and analysts. Her use of real-world case studies enhanced the learning experience for participants and encouraged discussion and reflection throughout each workshop. Both workshops were extremely well received. Participants left the workshops excited about their ability to apply the frameworks and tools in the context of their own business environments.

I say “masterful” because she is a pioneer in the fields of AI and data science research. Yet she is able to write for the rest of us, too.

Frequently Asked Questions

Although Dr. Ganesan uses proprietary frameworks in some of the workshops, the agenda itself is customized based on the needs of the organization.

Before the workshop, we meet with your team to understand your goals and challenges. Every session is adapted to your industry, leadership needs, and current stage of AI adoption, so the examples, discussions, and strategies are directly relevant to your organization.

Our workshops can be delivered online or in person, depending on your team’s needs. Sessions are scheduled on dates and times that work best for your organization. Whether virtual or on-site, the workshops are highly interactive, using real-world examples, discussions, and guided exercises to ensure your leadership team stays engaged and gets immediate value.

This really depends on the workshop itself and the depth of coverage. For most leadership workshops, we start with the foundations to ensure that everyone has a base level of knowledge. Beyond that, we will let you know if prior knowledge is required.

Yes. In fact, it’s highly recommended when you’re just starting your AI journey that you start with our foundational workshops before diving deeper into AI integration. Whether you’re exploring AI for the first time or trying to bring structure to early initiatives, the workshop helps you understand where to begin, what to prioritize, and how to move forward with a clear AI and generative AI strategy that fits your organization’s goals.

Participants include senior executives, department heads, small business owners, operations leaders, HR leaders, IT leaders, and anyone responsible for driving innovation or strategic decisions. It’s especially helpful for emerging AI leaders and mixed groups of technical and non-technical professionals.

Yes, if it’s an option you select. We provide follow-up check-in sessions to review progress, answer questions, and ensure your leadership team is moving in the right direction. Many clients find that this support strengthens alignment across teams and helps accelerate early AI adoption.

First, it gives your perspective, without all the noise that you hear about AI. You’re learning directly from the leader who builds AI products and works through AI integration challenges day in and day out. Nothing beats such strategic insights communicated as best practices to implement within your own organization.

Then, the workshops help leaders envision where AI fits into their broader business strategy through example use cases, deep dives, and brainstorming. Additionally, an AI business strategy without an understanding of potential dangers and broader implications puts your company in a vulnerable position.

Our workshops place strong emphasis on real-world ethical implications of AI, not just the theoretical information available online. We teach safety issues with AI, risks, and how to minimize them in smart, practical, and responsible ways.
