New from The BRIEF Lab
BRIEF Communication with AI
AI Won’t Make You a Better Communicator.
Knowing How to Use It Will.
Al is the smartest intern you’ve ever had. It’s also the most dangerous — it lies, it flatters, and it drowns you in jargon. You need to shift from using “AI as an intern” to “AI as chief of staff.”
This half-day workshop teaches you how to onboard and manage your chief of staff and use it to sharpen executive communication.
Limited to 30 participants · Digital first · No fluff, no theory — just prompts and frameworks you’ll use Monday morning.
Most AI Training Teaches You to Search.
This Teaches You to Think.
AI is everywhere, but many people still don’t know when and where it belongs in their weekly workflow. Some are easily impressed with what it spits out: Instant emails and reports are full of jargon and awkward, robotic sentences. Other people try to avoid AI tools and miss out completely.
This workshop treats AI as a srategic collaborator — a brilliant but flawed chief of staff that needs to be onboarded, managed, and held accountable. We’ll show you how to do that, while keeping you in total control of the output.
What You'll Walk Away With
A personal AI "onboarding manual"
Onboard AI with your role, industry, audiences, and communication style — so every output begins closer to “right”
Your authentic voice profile
Discover and codify how you actually communicate so AI amplifies your voice, not replaces it
A killer prompting method
An easy, clear, structured approach that works with any AI tool or app
Weekly moments to apply
Use your “chief or staff” to prepare for meetings, presentations, synthesis, executive summaries, tough conversations
Every exercise is built on the BRIEF methodology — the same system used by Fortune 500 teams and U.S. Special Operations.
Who Should Attend
This workshop is for professionals who already communicate at a high level and want AI to make them sharper — not people looking for an intro to ChatGPT.
Ideal For
→ Leaders and senior ICs who brief executives regularly
→ Professionals trained in BRIEF methodology (or familiar with it)

→ Those who want AI to sharpen — not shortcut — their thinking

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an introductory AI course?
No. This is not "how to use ChatGPT." This workshop focuses on using AI for high-stakes executive communication — summaries, recommendations, difficult conversations, and decision framing. You'll leave with prompts and frameworks, not tutorials.
Do I need prior BRIEF training?
It helps. The workshop builds on BRIEF principles like the BRIEF Map, narrative structure, and audience-first thinking. If you’re new, we recommend reading chapters 1–3 of BRIEF: Make a Bigger Impact by Saying Less or reviewing the BRIEF Map before attending.
What AI tools will we use?
The course is tool-agnostic. The prompts and frameworks work in ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini, or any large language model your organization uses.
Is this in-person or virtual?
Virtual. The session is delivered live and digitally — designed for focused interaction, not passive watching.
What if it sells out?
Join the waitlist. If the first cohort fills, you'll be first in line for the next session — and notified immediately if a seat opens in the May 7 class.
Can I expense this?
Yes. You'll receive a paid receipt suitable for corporate expense reports or L&D reimbursement.
