Workshops Already run

One morning with your laptop open, and Claude working on your own business by noon.

A working session at Sabre Business World in Harare. You set up a Claude Project with your own documents, get your inbox summarised and answered, and write the daily brief you want each morning. You leave with a company AI policy and the steps to repeat everything at work.

What happens in the room

You spend most of the morning working on your own documents.

Bring a laptop and the documents you actually work with: a price list, your standard terms, a contract you are about to sign, a spreadsheet you inherited. Those are what you work on.

About half the morning is hands-on, with help at your elbow. A free Claude account is enough for everything we do.

08:10What AI is, which tool to use, and what it does on real work.
08:35Is your business data safe? Where it goes, how that compares with Gmail and Outlook, and what Zimbabwean law requires.
08:55Build your Claude Project: your price list, standard terms and usual answers in one place.
09:50Your inbox: this morning's email summarised, and replies drafted for you to check.
10:30Your daily brief: the summary you want each morning, written once.
11:00One more job of your choice, then a look at a system built for a real business.

What you build

What you build keeps working after you leave the room.

Each build is done on your own documents, in your own Claude account, so it keeps working after you leave. A printed sheet for each one means you can repeat it, or show a colleague.

What you buildWhat is true afterwards
Your Claude Project
Your price list, standard terms and usual answers sit in one place, so every question starts from what you already know
Your inbox
This morning's email summarised, what needs you listed, and replies drafted for you to check and send
Your daily brief
The summary you want each morning, written once and run whenever you ask
One more job
A contract checked before you sign it, a broken spreadsheet explained, or a catalogue made from a price list
Each one done on your own documents
What you take home

An AI policy your company can adopt as written.

One page: what your staff are encouraged to do, what must never be pasted into these tools, who approves what, and who to ask. A wall version and a version to sign.

It comes with a summary of what Zimbabwean law requires. The Cyber and Data Protection Act and S.I. 155 of 2024 require a data controller licence and a certified Data Protection Officer, with no exemption for small companies. Every legal point carries its section number so your lawyer can check it in minutes.

What a built system looks like

See an AI assistant answering a business's customers on WhatsApp.

At the start we show working systems: a WhatsApp assistant answering a business's customers, and a watchlist that tracks prices and news and reports every morning.

Then we say plainly what it takes to build one for your business, and what it costs. Nothing is sold before that point.

Who is running it

Jon Dallas

An American software developer living in Harare, and the CTO of Executive AI Studio. He builds the systems Zimbabwean companies run on, including a WhatsApp assistant that takes a stockfeed distributor’s orders in place of the phone calls that used to fill every morning.

He teaches the way he works: plainly, and on the assumption that nobody in the room should feel behind.

About the pictures

To protect the privacy of our workshop attendees, the pictures of people on these pages are AI images. They are made from photographs of the real room at Sabre Business World, using techniques that keep them true to life: the room and the way the morning is laid out are as they were on the day, and the people are invented.
