A focused, facilitated day for startup and corporate teams who want a shared AI strategy, a clear playbook, and the human readiness to make it stick. Built for groups of 5 to 25 — not Fortune-500 transformation programs.

What the day actually looks like

  1. 1

    Morning — Where you actually are

    Honest audit of current AI use, frustrations, wins, and the gap between leadership intent and team reality.

  2. 2

    Midday — Human readiness

    Live scorecard across psychological safety, self-awareness, and shared language. The human conditions that make AI stick.

  3. 3

    Afternoon — Shared strategy

    Pick the workflows, the tools, the guardrails, and the owners. Write it down together so it survives the week.

  4. 4

    Close — 30-60-90 plan

    Concrete commitments with names and dates. Not a slide deck — a plan you'll reference next month.

Workshop FAQ

How long is a Scrappy Sparrow AI workshop?
One focused day — typically six hours with breaks. Remote sessions run as two half-days if your team prefers it.
Who should attend?
Cross-functional groups of 5–25. For startups, that's usually founders plus the leads who will actually use AI day-to-day. For corporate teams, that's a department, a project team, or a leadership group aligning ahead of a broader rollout.
Is this remote, in-person, or both?
Both. Remote works well for most problems — we use a shared Figma or Miro board and video. If you're in Denver or want to fly me in, in-person is available. Travel costs are added to the engagement at cost. Either way the output is the same.
What do we walk away with?
A written AI strategy doc tailored to your team, a prioritized list of workflows to automate next, a shared vocabulary for working with AI, and a readiness scorecard for the humans in the room.
How much does a one-day AI workshop cost?
Pricing depends on team size, format, and prep. Startup-track workshops start lower than corporate-track engagements. Request a quote and we'll send a fixed price within a day.
