A multinational technology company's Southeast Asian regional team was struggling to keep pace with rapid AI developments. Despite being in the tech industry, many team members felt overwhelmed by the pace of change and uncertain how to apply AI to their specific roles.
Leadership wanted to upskill 50+ executives across product, engineering, and operations functions. Previous training programs had delivered theoretical knowledge but failed to create lasting behavioral change or practical application.
The key challenges included:
The company designed a comprehensive 8-week program combining executive briefings, role-specific workshops, and hands-on implementation sprints.
Executive briefings established a common understanding of AI capabilities, limitations, and strategic implications. Leadership addressed skepticism directly by showcasing relevant industry examples.
Customized workshops for product managers, engineers, and operations leaders. Each track focused on AI applications specific to their function, with hands-on exercises using their actual work challenges.
Teams identified and began implementing AI use cases from their own work, with coaching and support as they moved from concept to prototype.
“This wasn't just another corporate training program. The practical focus and immediate application to our real challenges made all the difference.”— Director of Operations (reported in industry press)
