The future of work is no longer a distant concept; it’s here, and it's rapidly transforming industries across the globe. For those in the power transmission sector, understanding and adapting to this shift is crucial. Enter Dan Sodergren, a renowned keynote speaker and expert on the future of work, technology and AI, who will be leading a workshop at the upcoming EPTDA (EMEA Power Transmission Distributors Association) convention.

This session promises to equip participants with the tools and knowledge they need to navigate the evolving landscape of AI and automation in the workplace.

Why Attend Dan Sodergren’s Workshop?

Dan Sodergren, a respected figure in the tech world, is not just another futurist. He has more than two decades of experience teaching and training different sized businesses and senior leadership teams. He also has a deep working understanding of AI, technology, and the implications of the Fifth Industrial Revolution - which is why he wrote a book of the same title earlier this year. He brings a wealth of experience and insight into how businesses can harness AI to stay ahead. His workshop at the EPTDA convention is a unique opportunity for leaders in the power transmission industry to gain practical skills and insights that can be directly applied to their businesses.

The workshop is designed to be highly interactive, offering attendees the chance to work hands-on with AI tools like GPT-4.0 and TypingMind. (And more than 10 other tools) It’s not just about understanding AI in theory; it’s about learning how to apply it to real-world business scenarios.

Workshop Overview: A Deep Dive into AI

The workshop is divided into three key sections, each focusing on different aspects of AI and its application in business.

Assisting AI

The session begins with an introduction to AI, where Dan will cover the basics—what AI is, its history, and its different types, such as narrow AI and general AI. This will be followed by a practical demonstration of AI tools that many participants may already be familiar with, like ChatGPT. The goal here is to demystify AI and show how it can be used in everyday business tasks. One of the highlights of this section is the focus on AI prompt engineering. Dan will guide participants through the process of crafting effective prompts, using a case study to illustrate how AI can assist in summarising and generating content. This isn’t just about learning what AI can do; it’s about understanding how to get the most out of it.

Augmenting Workflows with AI

The second part of the workshop shifts focus to how AI can augment business workflows. Dan will introduce the concept of deconstructing work into different tasks, a crucial step in managing AI effectively. Participants will then engage in a live demonstration, where they’ll create a character for use in TypingMind, followed by a session on content augmentation.

This part of the workshop encourages participants to think creatively about how AI can enhance their existing workflows. Whether it’s generating marketing content or streamlining operations, the goal is to explore the practical applications of AI in a business context.

Automating AI/Agent

The final section of the workshop delves into the automation of business processes using AI agents. Dan will walk attendees through the process of setting up simple automations, such as using Zapier, IFTTT, Make and Lindy to create an email lead triaging system. This hands-on session will demonstrate how AI can take over repetitive tasks, freeing up valuable time for more strategic activities.

Participants will also have the opportunity to explore how AI agents can be created to handle more complex workflows. By the end of this section, they’ll have a clear understanding of how to implement automation in their own businesses, making their operations more efficient and cost-effective.

The Future of Work: Why AI Matters

The rise of AI agents is reshaping the future of work. According to recent studies, AI agents are expected to boost global GDP by 14% by 2030, with productivity enhancements being a significant driver. For industries like power transmission, where efficiency and precision are paramount, the ability to automate and augment tasks with AI is a game-changer.

Dan Sodergren’s workshop offers a rare opportunity to learn from one of the leading voices in the field. Whether you’re looking to enhance your business operations, improve your marketing strategies, or simply stay ahead of the curve, this session is not to be missed.
