We all have tasks that we love and a few that we hate. This engaging webinar demystifies the latest AI and Web3 tools so we reduce the time of those jobs we hate and be more productive doing the jobs we love.

We’ll explore “Day In the Life Of” (DILO) tools: smart email assistants, automated scheduling, AI-powered research, project management, and networking tools. These can streamline our routine, cut through the noise, and help us focus on what matters most. Whether you’re bored by meetings, drowning in emails, or simply curious about how AI can give you a competitive edge, this session will provide practical insights and real-world examples you can use right away.

Our speaker, Mike Weston-Burt, worked for nearly 40 years in the big 4 consultancies and is now bringing his huge wealth of learning & training experience to help businesses small and large with their training needs on a freelance basis.
