The AI Strategy Taster Day was well pitched at leaders with a clear framework that could be applied in practice. It was well paced, with a good balance between training content and discussion. There was plenty of opportunity to share experiences, ask questions and hear others' perspective. Haami was an excellent facilitator. She responded thoughtfully and insightfully throughout. Her ability to understand participants' perspectives, draw out key themes and guide meaningful conversation, while keeping the content on track created an engaging and valuable learning experience.

I sat on a taster course yesterday with Haami. The course was well constructed and Haami's knowledge and experience really brought the subject to life. I would highly recommend.

The overall experience was insightful but a bit long. Credit to the trainer making the course fun & enjoyable. Without the trainer (Nick) the course would be boring…
