Workshop - Rethinking Operations: Using AI to Scale Smarter
Hey ops friends,
Let’s talk AI - not just what’s possible, but how to actually make it work. 🧠
This is a follow-up session from the Rethinking Operations: Using AI to Scale Smarter session in May, designed to help you take things a step further. If you joined us for that session, you’ll know the big ideas. Now, it’s time to roll up your sleeves.
This is your chance to shift from what's possible with AI to how to put it into practice. 🚀
Bring along your own AI use cases or workflow challenges – we’ll work together to evaluate them, explore where AI can drive the most operational value, and guide you through a practical framework for planning implementation. You’ll also see a real example using Stacker’s software in action.
This is a collaborative, interactive session – not a sit-back-and-watch webinar. You’ll leave with practical tools and a sharper mindset for where and how AI can bring real value to your operations.
Grab your seat now - only 18 available!* 🔥
*If we go over capacity, we'll consider hosting another session - so don't be discouraged if you get the notification that you ended up on the waitlist. We'll reach out if a space becomes available.
What to expect:
🧠 A clear, practical framework for evaluating AI opportunities in your business
🔍 A live walkthrough of real examples to see how the framework applies in action
🛠️ Breakout time to evaluate your own AI use case using the framework
🧭 Step-by-step guidance on how to plan AI implementation in your ops
🧪 A tried-and-tested example brought to life using Stacker’s software
🤝 Group reflection and sharing to learn from each other’s approaches
You should join us if...
✅ You’re a business operations lead, HOO, or cross-functional team lead
✅ You’re actively exploring how AI could help scale or streamline your ops
✅ You’re curious about practical implementation, not just theory or trends
✅ You want a collaborative space to work through your own AI opportunities with peers
You're unlikely to benefit if...
🚫 You’re unlikely to benefit if you’re looking for this to tell you the “AI solution/tool” you should use. This session is about exploring your problem, clarifying the outcome you’re aiming for, and thinking through how you might implement a solution.
🚫 You’re only looking for tool demos, how-to guides, or AI workflow tutorials
🚫 You’re not currently thinking about where AI could support your team or processes
🚫 You’re only looking for general inspiration or big-picture trend talk
⚠️ A quick heads-up
This session is designed for collaborative problem-solving - where we work through ideas and frameworks together. To help make it valuable for you and others, we’ll review registration responses to understand your goals and current challenges. If we need more info, we may reach out directly.
The recording of this session will not be shared. ON Members will receive a summary of the key takeaways after the session wraps up.
