What’s in this session:
In a world where productivity advice is endless and AI tools evolve weekly, the competitive edge doesn’t come from knowing everything—it comes from learning faster and executing smarter.
This session is designed for entrepreneurial leaders who want to move beyond the buzzwords and start using AI like a strategic partner. We’ll explore how AI can support decision-making, reduce time spent on low-value tasks, and even challenge the internal narratives that hold us back—like perfectionism, overpreparation, or imposter syndrome.
Drawing from real-world applications across startups, scale-ups, and corporate transformations, Sarah Gallant will share a practical playbook for integrating AI into your personal systems and business operations—no technical background required. Whether you’re a founder, builder, or innovator, you’ll leave with tools to help you reclaim time, make better decisions, and lead with clarity in the age of intelligent systems.
