What this is
Most AI training explains what the tools can do. Managers already believe the tools can do things. What they are missing is one worked example from their own week, and an hour with somebody who has built that kind of thing before.
So the programme starts by asking what you actually spent last week on, and builds from the answers. No generic examples. Nothing you have to translate into your own situation afterwards.
How it runs
Four beats, in order.
- Find the work. Three questions to each manager, answered privately about their own week rather than their team's.
- See where everyone stands. A short readiness check, so the sessions are pitched at the room that is actually there.
- Build it in the room. Each person works on their own task while I move between them. Theory arrives at the moment it explains something that just went wrong.
- Measure what changed. What the task cost before, what it costs after, measured against the same artifact rather than against anyone's memory.
Sessions run 60 to 90 minutes, weekly at first and fortnightly once the work between sessions gets real. Three months at the outside. One to one follow-ups are available for anyone who wants to go further than a group session can take them.
What it asks of you
Front doors rarely say this, so here it is. Ten minutes for the readiness check. Three questions answered in writing, a few sentences each. About ten minutes per task to work out what that task costs today, because without it nobody can honestly say afterwards whether anything improved. Then the sessions themselves.
If a manager cannot find that time, the programme will not work for them, and it is better to know that in week one.
Who runs it
Rimas Lukaszewicz. Fourteen years in IT, previously at AWS working on EC2 Nitro and at Intel, currently Head of Engineering at Cloudvisor and founder of Rimas Logic. Based in Gdansk.
The reason the training is not theoretical: I run the same automation I teach, across a full time job, a business and a family. Every method in the programme is one I use on my own week first.
Start with the check
Before any of the above, find out where you actually stand. Ten minutes, in whichever AI assistant you already use, and you keep the result whether or not anything follows.
