​​🗓️ Join us on December 2nd!

​Your team is already using AI, often where leadership can’t see it. It’s built into everyday tools, running on personal accounts, and showing up in approved tools used for things they weren’t approved for. This is often called “Shadow AI”: AI that shapes decisions and work without leadership knowing it’s there.

​Chiefs of Staff sit between the CEO, the leadership team, and daily operations, so they’re well placed to bring this into the open without slowing the business down. In this workshop, you’ll apply the UFO Framework (Uncover, Facilitate, Operationalize) to your own organization and leave with a practical plan to make AI use visible.

​💡 What you’ll leave with

• ​A map of where hidden AI use likely shows up in your organization: built-in features, personal accounts, and approved tools stretched beyond their purpose.

• ​A conversation guide for inviting colleagues to share how they use AI, grounded in the value of their human contribution rather than fear of being replaced.

• ​A 30-day action plan with owners, simple guardrails, and next steps you can bring to your CEO.

​🎯 Who it’s for

​Current and aspiring Chiefs of Staff who’ve been asked to “figure out AI” without a formal mandate or a governance team behind them. It’s especially useful in growing organizations where AI use is outpacing policy, and in regulated or high-accountability sectors like financial services, legal, healthcare, and government contracting.

​✅ How to prepare

​No prep needed. Come with one workflow, function, or initiative where you suspect AI already plays a role, and be ready to join live exercises and discussion. After the session, you’ll get a QR code to a free workbook for completing your map, conversation guide, and action plan.
