Agentic AI is surging and is set to hit $50B by 2030 (Grand View Research). Yet most orgs just aren’t ready. Wait too long and there’s a chance your comms workflows could get automated by bots or even taken over by IT or marketing—without your team’s input. This workshop helps you get ahead with a plan to 1) spot high-impact tasks, 2) build agents to manage them and 3) leave with an agentic framework you can show your boss—along with talking points to secure executive buy-in and keep communications in the lead. What we’ll cover:
- Agentic 101: Key definitions, autonomy levels and why true agents differ from custom GPTs and chatbots.
- Agentic Framework: A practical, plug-and-play model for identifying agent-ready tasks, defining guardrails and sequencing autonomy—so you can design agentic workflows without building one live.
- Governance and Guardrails: How to set approvals, data tiers and brand-safety checks to keep agents compliant, ethical and on-brand.
- Change Management Playbook: Templates, training tips and stakeholder strategies to earn trust, avoid turf wars and keep comms in the lead.
- ROI and Roadmap: How to set KPIs and draft a 90-day pilot plan that gets funded and scales responsibly.
✓ CASE STUDIES: Examples of agentic pilots that pre-wrote townhall answers, automated monitoring and saved up to 10 hours a week—plus one cautionary tale. ✓ INTERACTIVE SPRINT: Use a heat-map worksheet to rank workflows by effort and impact—then map your top pick to the agentic framework so you leave with a “build next” plan to share internally.
