Prompting Like a Pro: Unlocking the Full Power of AI

Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming an essential workplace tool, but many professionals still struggle to get consistent, high-quality results. Too often, AI-generated outputs are generic, inaccurate, or require multiple rounds of revision. The difference is rarely the tool itself; it is how users communicate with it. Prompting is quickly emerging as a critical business skill, similar to conducting effective online searches or using spreadsheet software. When used effectively, prompting can transform AI from a novelty into a powerful productivity partner.

This practical, hands-on session explores the art and science of AI prompting and demonstrates how structured prompting techniques can improve results across a variety of business applications. Participants will learn why prompting matters, how small changes in inputs can dramatically improve outputs, and how to apply the SPICES framework and other recognized prompting approaches to generate higher-quality responses. Through interactive exercises, attendees will compare results generated with and without prompting best practices while working through real-world scenarios such as customer communications and standard operating procedure (SOP) development. To fully participate in the hands-on exercises and gain the greatest benefit from the program, attendees should have access to an AI chatbot tool, such as Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, ChatGPT, or Claude. The session concludes with practical AI use cases that can be immediately applied to improve productivity and support day-to-day business operations.
