Discounts

Options for your situation

Request your discount on the session (a class on date/time with a trainer) you want. If more than one discount applies explain in your comments.

You can pay in installments by choosing Splitit at checkout.

For Grow-Lean Alumni, log in or use your account email when registering, and receive an automatic discount. If you also qualify for another discount, request it, and, if your email matches, we know you are an alumni.

If you have a Visa or Mastercard credit card you can pay in monthly installments. There are no fees or interest if you pay on time! Your available credit must be enough to cover the full cost and there is a hold on your credit card for the amount that you have not paid.

For example, if your final fee is $999 and you choose three installments:

  • You would pay $333 today and have a $666 hold placed on your credit card.
  • The following month your credit card would be charged another $333 and the hold would be reduced to $333.
  • Your final payment would be $333.

If you are not familiar with the term "hold" this is similar to what hotels do when you check in, to cover extra expenses you may incur including the mini bar.

The benefit to you is that you do not pay any interest or fees if all payments are on time.

Agenda

Eight practice-driven sections in a full-day workshop.
Hands-on application of Generative AI to real work.

1
Generative AI Foundations & Mental Models
  • Cut through the hype with a clear, working model of what Generative AI is good at and where it fails.
  • Survey the AI tools today's knowledge workers actually use and what each is best suited for.
  • Decide what to keep human, what to delegate to AI, and what to do together.
2
Hands-On Prompt Engineering
  • Practice the prompt patterns that move output from generic to genuinely useful.
  • Use role, context, examples, and constraints to control quality and tone.
  • Iterate prompts the way Agile teams iterate work: small steps, fast feedback.
3
AI for Productivity & Daily Workflows
  • Apply AI to the work that fills your week: drafting, summarizing, reviewing, and preparing.
  • Compress busywork so you can spend more time on judgment, customers, and decisions.
  • Build repeatable AI-assisted workflows you can run again tomorrow.
4
AI for Brainstorming, Planning & Decision-Making
  • Use AI to widen the option space, stress-test ideas, and surface assumptions early.
  • Draft and critique plans, scenarios, and decision frames with AI as a thinking partner.
  • Keep the final decision human; learn where the AI's confidence is least trustworthy.
5
Agile, Lean & AI Together
  • See how Agile and Lean principles dramatically improve the results you get from AI.
  • Apply iteration, feedback, small batches, and customer focus to your AI work.
  • Use AI to accelerate Agile events, refinement, and team communication without replacing the conversation.
6
AI for Analysis & Communication
  • Use AI to synthesize documents, interviews, feedback, and data into clear narratives.
  • Sharpen stakeholder communication, executive summaries, and team updates.
  • Spot what is missing from the analysis and what AI is filling in with assumptions.
7
Strengths, Limitations & Responsible Use
  • Spot hallucinations, bias, and false confidence before they shape a decision.
  • Apply practical guardrails for data privacy, IP, and customer information.
  • Build a personal checklist for what you will and will not put through AI.
8
Building Repeatable AI-Assisted Workflows
  • Turn the day's patterns into reusable workflows for your team and your role.
  • Capture prompts, checklists, and review steps your colleagues can pick up and use.
  • Leave with a clear plan to apply Generative AI to a real challenge from your own work.
AGENDA PACE
The agenda is paced to participants and the challenges they bring. Sections may be lengthened or shortened so the most useful material gets the most time.

What Sets This Apart

A live, full-day Generative AI workshop grounded in Agile and Lean.
Not an AI tutorial. Not a theory lecture. Practical skills you use the next day.
Practical & Real
A full-day live workshop taught by an experienced Agile and Lean practitioner with multiple AI certifications. The difference shows up in the prompts you write, the workflows you keep, and the judgment calls you make about when AI helps and when it quietly misleads you.
Agile & Lean Thinking
Agile and Lean principles aren't a side topic; they shape every part of how we use AI in this course. Iteration, small batches, feedback loops, and customer focus dramatically improve the results you get from Generative AI.
Immediate Workplace Application
You bring a real business or Agile challenge. You leave with prompts, workflows, and AI-assisted artifacts you can use immediately, plus a clear view of where AI creates measurable value and where it does not.
