You’ve tried AI. You’ve typed in a bunch of questions. And what came back was… fine. Generic. A little flat. Not quite what you were hoping for.

Sound familiar?

The problem isn’t AI. 

The problem is the prompt.

Most of us were never taught how to actually talk to AI,  how to ask for what we need in a way that gets results worth using. 

So we type something vague, get something vague back, and quietly wonder if everyone else has figured this out already. (Spoiler: they haven’t. They’re just as lost and just as reluctant to admit it.)

Here’s the good news: prompting is a skill. And like any skill, it can be learned, practiced, and yes,  even enjoyed.

In this hands-on, practical Roundtable, we move past the theory and get into the how. How to frame your requests. How to avoid the most common prompting pitfalls. And how to start building a personal prompt library you’ll actually reach for.

In this free workshop on June 18th, with me, Lee-Anne Ragan, you’ll:

• Identify what’s been getting in the way of getting great results from AI and fix it, on the spot
• Discover the prompting definitely do’s that make all the difference, and the dastardly don’ts that are sabotaging your results
• Get ideas for prompts tailored to your work so you leave with something immediately useful
• Practice in small groups with real prompts and real tasks, because reading about prompting and doing it are two very different things
• Begin building your own personal prompt library, a living resource you’ll use and add to long after the Roundtable ends
• Gain access to 13+ years of Learning and Development Roundtable resources
• Count the workshop towards your annual UN professional development (if you’re UN staff — but know that you don’t have to be a UN staff to attend, any and all are welcome)

Note: 

• This session stands alone, but if you’d like a running start, watching the recent “From Generic to Genius” Roundtable beforehand is a great idea. Come knowing what you’d like AI to help you with and be prepared to practice. 

• The link to “From Generic to Genius” will be sent out to everyone who registers for this Roundtable.
