Professional services

AI and technology training for professional services

Law, accountancy, consulting, agencies and advisory firms sell judgement by the hour, which makes AI both an obvious lever and an obvious threat to the model. These cohorts deal with the real question rather than the abstract one: which parts of the work the tools genuinely take, and how to keep the part clients are paying for.

Using AI on the work your team already does, with the judgement to know when the output is wrong.

What this sector brings into the room

Client confidentiality is the whole business
What may enter a tool, under which client's terms, and what the approved route is when the answer is no. Practitioners leave able to make that call themselves rather than escalating every time.
Drafting is most of the day
Written work is where the time is, and where the quality risk sits. Sessions cover producing a first draft fast and interrogating it properly, which is a different skill from writing it yourself.
Research and analysis that has to hold up
Verification habits, source checking, and knowing the failure modes of the tool well enough to catch a confident answer that is wrong.
The billing model is the elephant
The manager and leadership sessions deal with measuring what changed, and with the difference between time saved and value captured, because in this sector they are not the same number.

Also runs for any sector

These work the same way whoever is in the room. They are still delivered on your own material, so they are no less specific to you - the sector simply is not what changes them.

Which of these does your organisation actually need?

The readiness assessment scores each person across five dimensions and maps the gaps onto this catalogue, by department and by role. Five minutes per person, and it answers the question with a measurement rather than a guess.
