Workshop Agenda
What We'll Cover
A detailed breakdown of every topic in this 90-minute session.
Introduction: The Agentic Revolution
Mike opens with a bold claim: AI agents represent the biggest opportunity since ChatGPT landed in late 2022. He sets the stage for why 2026 is the inflection point — costs have dropped, capabilities have matured, and the businesses that deploy agents now will define the competitive landscape for the next decade.
- Why "AI agents" is more than a buzzword — it's a new operating model
- The gap between businesses using AI tools vs. AI agents
- What attendees will walk away with by the end of the session
What AI Agents Actually Do (And Don't Do)
A deep dive into the difference between chatbots, copilots, and true autonomous agents. Mike walks through the spectrum from simple Q&A bots to agents that can plan, execute multi-step tasks, use tools, and learn from feedback.
- The AI maturity spectrum: scripted responses → copilots → autonomous agents
- How agents differ: they take action, use tools, and complete entire workflows
- Case study: replacing expensive contractor loops with agent-driven workflows
Claude Cowork: Live Demo
Mike demonstrates Anthropic's Claude Cowork platform, showing how it handles complex, multi-step tasks that would normally require a technical specialist — technical audits, code analysis, and research tasks completed in minutes, not days.
- Live demo: technical audit and code fixes completed in minutes
- How Claude Cowork handles multi-step reasoning with tool use
- Cost considerations and practical usage patterns
OpenClaw: Building Custom Agents Without Code
The second major platform demo focuses on OpenClaw — showing how non-technical business owners can create custom AI agents using natural language instructions. Mike builds a working agent live during the session.
- OpenClaw's no-code agent builder — describe what you want, deploy in minutes
- Live build: creating a customer onboarding agent from scratch
- Comparing OpenClaw and Claude Cowork — when to use which
From "Doers" to "Agent Supervisors"
Mike outlines the fundamental organizational shift that AI agents demand. Instead of teams doing repetitive work, the new model is teams supervising agents that do the work.
- The new org chart: how AI-first companies structure their teams
- Which roles become "agent supervisors" vs. which tasks get fully automated
- The "Agent Readiness Matrix" for scoring your processes
Governance, Sandboxing & Data Security
An honest look at the risks and how to mitigate them. Mike covers sandboxing strategies, data access controls, and compliance frameworks that let you scale AI agents fast without exposing sensitive business data.
- Sandboxing: giving agents access to tools without access to everything
- Data classification: what agents should and shouldn't see
- The governance checklist for deploying agents safely
Building Your AI Workforce: The Roadmap
Mike provides a concrete, phased roadmap for going from zero agents to a fully orchestrated AI workforce — from your first pilot agent to multi-agent systems that handle entire business functions autonomously.
- Phase 1: Pick one high-value, low-risk task and deploy a single agent
- Phase 2: Expand to 3-5 agents handling related workflows
- Phase 3: Multi-agent orchestration — agents supervising agents
Q&A & Next Steps
Open Q&A covering topics from agent cost management to industry-specific applications. Actionable next steps and resources for continued learning.
- How to manage agent costs and avoid runaway API spending
- Industry-specific applications: professional services, e-commerce, marketing
- When to build custom agents vs. use off-the-shelf platforms
