Tool overload
The landscape changes weekly. People don’t know which capabilities matter—or what they can ignore.
AI TEAM ENABLEMENT SPRINT
AI is moving fast. Your team doesn’t need to keep up with all of it.
They need to know what matters for their work.
I learn how your team actually works, identify where today’s AI can genuinely help, and build a hands-on program around your real problems—so your people know what to use, when to use it, and what to ignore.

THE ADOPTION GAP
The problem isn’t access to AI. It’s knowing what to do with it.
Most teams don’t need more AI news. They need someone to translate today’s capabilities into the work they already do.
Uneven adoption
Some employees use AI every day. Others barely use it, and the team has no shared approach.
Generic training
Prompting courses teach features, but not how AI fits the team’s actual workflows.
Unclear value
Organizations buy Copilot, ChatGPT, or Gemini without a practical plan for consistent use.
PROBLEM-FIRST ENABLEMENT
I don’t start with the course. I start with your work.
Before I teach anything, I learn where time is being lost, what people repeat every week, where information gets stuck, and what employees find frustrating.
“I don’t ask your team to know what should be automated. I ask them to show me how they work.”

HOW IT WORKS
A short consulting engagement built around one team’s real work.
Learn how your team works
Leadership questionnaire, a 60–90 minute briefing, and a short employee workflow survey.
Build the AI Opportunity Map
I assess frequency, time burden, AI suitability, value, adoption ease, and risk.
Design the priority workflows
Together, we select up to three workflows for practical, deeper treatment.
Teach the team hands-on
A customized remote half-day workshop uses your workflows as examples and exercises.
Apply it to real work
Employees try the techniques in their own work and discover where friction remains.
Troubleshoot and leave with a plan
A 90-minute clinic, final Team AI Playbook, and practical 30-day adoption plan.
AI OPPORTUNITY MAP
Not every task needs AI. The first job is finding the ones that do.
Each opportunity is judged by its real value, feasibility, adoption effort, and risk—not by how exciting the technology sounds.
| Workflow | Current pain | Suggested approach | Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| Client research | 2h per account | Research + synthesis | Quick Win |
| Meeting follow-up | Manual notes and actions | Structured extraction | Quick Win |
| Proposal drafting | Repetitive first draft | AI draft + human review | Guided Workflow |
| Weekly reporting | Repetitive assembly | Multi-step workflow | Automation Candidate |
| High-stakes approval | Error-sensitive | Human-led review | Not Recommended |
“Not Recommended” is a useful answer. The goal is judgment—not AI everywhere.
THE CUSTOMIZED WORKSHOP
Learn AI through the work your team already does.
A proven curriculum backbone provides the essentials. Your team’s highest-priority workflows become the examples and hands-on exercises.
What modern AI can and cannot do
Choosing the right capability for a task
Better context and instructions
Research and source verification
Documents and internal knowledge
Reliability, hallucinations, and human checks
Reusable AI-assisted workflows
When automation and agents make sense
WHAT YOUR TEAM GETS
Clarity before the workshop. Reinforcement after it.
Discovery & briefing
Leadership questionnaire, briefing, and up to 20 participant responses.
AI Opportunity Map
A prioritized view of useful, premature, and unsuitable opportunities.
Up to 3 workflow designs
Current and AI-assisted flows, tools, example instructions, checks, and risks.
Customized half-day workshop
Up to four remote hours, built around the team’s actual work.
90-minute AI Clinic
Troubleshoot what employees tried after the workshop.
Team AI Playbook
Recommended toolbox, reusable patterns, safe-use principles, and 30-day plan.
FIXED-SCOPE ENGAGEMENT
AI Team Enablement Sprint
One team or department · Remote delivery · Up to 20 participants
US$7,5002–3 weeks
Enablement and opportunity mapping—not an implementation project.
The sprint does not include production automations, agents, software development, systems integrations, formal governance, or legal, privacy, security, and regulatory review. If we identify workflows worth building, implementation can be scoped separately.

YOUR FACILITATOR
Practical AI, taught by someone who works with it every day.
I’m Cristiano Aguiar, Ph.D. I’ve spent 15+ years working in applied AI and machine learning—from deep-learning systems in regulated healthcare to generative AI, agentic systems, and AI product development.
Alongside consulting, I mentor working professionals across AI programs from MIT Professional Education and Johns Hopkins University, delivered in collaboration with Great Learning. More than 4,000 professionals have gone through programs I’ve supported.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Designed for teams that need practical direction.
Is this a generic AI workshop?
No. The engagement begins with discovery and workflow analysis. The workshop is then built around your team’s actual work and highest-priority opportunities.
Do employees need AI experience?
No. The sprint works well for mixed experience levels, including people who are unsure where to start.
Which tools do you teach?
That depends on your approved stack and workflows. The goal is the smallest useful toolkit—not teaching every platform.
Do you build the automations or agents you identify?
Not within the US$7,500 sprint. Implementation can be scoped separately.
Can you work with sensitive or regulated organizations?
Yes. The sprint avoids unnecessary sharing of sensitive information. Your organization remains responsible for legal, privacy, security, and compliance decisions.
Can this be delivered in person?
The base scope is remote. In-person delivery can be quoted separately.
START WITH A 30-MINUTE FIT CALL
Make AI useful for the work your team already does.
Tell me a little about the team. I’ll review the details and we can discuss whether the sprint is the right fit.
