Artificial intelligence (AI) is not just for technology experts. It is quickly becoming an essential leadership tool for professionals across industries.

Dyersburg State Community College (DSCC) Workforce Development will host “The AI-Enabled Leader: Practical Strategies to Increase Productivity, Improve Decision-Making, and Lead More Effectively” workshop on Wednesday, December 9, at the DSCC main campus in Dyersburg.

The full-day workshop will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at DSCC’s Security Bank Community Learning Center, 401 Country Club Road. The registration fee is $399 and includes a participant training guide and boxed lunch. Register online at https://bit.ly/484fStT.

Designed specifically for busy professionals, The AI-Enabled Leader will show participants how to leverage AI to boost productivity, sharpen strategic thinking, and streamline everyday leadership tasks. Participants will learn practical strategies they can put to work immediately and leave the workshop with an action plan for incorporating AI into their daily responsibilities.

“AI has the potential to give busy professionals one of their most valuable resources back: time,” said Darrin Devault, Director of Workforce Development at DSCC. “The practical strategies participants learn in this workshop can help them work more efficiently, make better decisions, and focus more attention on the responsibilities that truly require their leadership. If participants consistently put these tools into practice, the time and productivity they gain can quickly offset the cost of the workshop and continue delivering value long after the training is over.”

Chris Doyle, owner of Boost Your Leadership, will lead the workshop. Doyle has more than 35 years of experience in the information technology industry and more than a decade of experience in executive coaching and leadership development.

His distinguished career includes 10 years with Panasonic Corporation and 15 years as vice president of product management and marketing at Teltronics. For the past decade, Doyle has served as an executive coach and leadership development consultant, helping organizations and leaders achieve lasting success.

The workshop is designed to make AI approachable and useful for professionals regardless of their level of technical expertise. Rather than focusing on technology for technology’s sake, the program emphasizes practical applications that can help leaders save time, think more strategically, and become more effective in their day-to-day responsibilities.

The Department of Workforce Development at DSCC provides learning opportunities through certificate programs, customized workforce training, personal enrichment courses, and youth programs.
