Introduction to AI Skills for Non-Technical Professionals

This workshop introduces AI fundamentals and how artificial intelligence can be applied in non-technical roles. It empowers participants to understand AI’s impact on business processes and decision-making.

‍Learning Objectives: The learning objectives for this session include gaining a basic understanding of AI and its applications, learning how AI can be leveraged in business without requiring technical expertise, and exploring the ethical considerations of AI use. Participants will also gain hands-on experience with AI tools tailored for non-technical roles.

‍Workshop Structure (2x2hours):
‍The workshop is structured into two main blocks. In the first block, participants will begin with introductions, ground rules, and a preview of the AI mapping template. This will be followed by a session on understanding how AI works in theory. Next, participants will explore AI in practice, with an overview of its capabilities, real-world examples, and common pitfalls. The block concludes with a group discussion where participants map their workflows, identify tasks, and assess the potential for AI integration.

The second block starts with a demonstration of foundational AI models and tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity. This is followed by a session on selecting the right AI tools, focusing on task selection, AI approaches, and timeline setting. Participants will then have an introduction to AI ethics before wrapping up with a discussion and Q&A session.

"Great program! My mentor match was perfect.. absolutely helpful and essential in guiding me and giving me support, practical advice and encouragement. The workshops were also practical and interesting."
Daniela McFarren
EU Public Affairs Manager
at DIAGEO
"It was invaluable for me to be able to talk with my mentor Kate Funk about things regarding the team or the different situations I was facing throughout the six months. I was also inspired by the drive other women in the program had to learn and grow and to see that the things we are dealing with are often similar no matter our background and that we can learn a lot from each other. Since my mentor lives in Florida, we had our sessions online, but we really clicked from the very first one. I learned the importance of having to lead myself first before I can be of any use to anybody else. We went through our Gallup test results which helped me understand my strengths much more and I also got many great tips for hiring as it’s something I’m also responsible for in my team."

"Femme Palette was a very inspiring and interesting project for me. Thanks to the program, I had the opportunity to meet many interesting women, share and develop my experience in the field of leadership and inspire each other. I appreciate not only the interesting Workshops, but also the tailor-made mentoring, which gave me the opportunity to solve current problems, but also the long-term strategy and direction of the team. Simply perfect!"
Gabriela Pradkova

"The possibility to participate in Femme Palette Leadership program came just in time when I decided to move forward in my career. By all means, all the perks of this program (workshops with respected lecturers on topics that matter for leaders, our group discussions and precise match with my mentor) helped me to navigate throughout my first months as a manager and leader."
Katerina Grebenova
Head of HR
at GuideVision
"The Leadership Program of Femme Palette has been a true blessing in my life. I have discovered a power within me that I didn't know about thanks to all their workshops and mentoring sessions, became more confident and have a clear vision of what to do to keep making progress in my life - as a professional and as an individual. I would recommend it a thousand times to everyone!"
