From ChatGPT to the AI revolution – how to transform your business
How companies move beyond simple ChatGPT use and develop a real AI strategy: from RAG and custom GPTs to their own algorithms and new business models.
What you will learn
ChatGPT for day-to-day work is only the beginning. If everyone uses the same tool, the results become interchangeable. Mike shows how companies develop their own algorithms and approaches that truly differentiate.
The six areas where AI delivers value
Automation – improved output efficiency
Scaling – growth with fewer staff
Service improvement – optimise the customer experience
Better decisions – based on data
New products and services – and more revenue
Competitive advantage – through proprietary approaches
The five steps to an AI strategy
Step 1: Foundations – build awareness, develop a vision, clarify governance
Step 2: Ideation – identify pain points, prioritise use cases
Step 3: Validation – assess data readiness, evaluate implementation complexity, estimate impact
Step 4: Proof of concept – keep it short and sharp, test hypotheses
Step 5: Delivery – development, implementation, and upskilling the team in parallel
Figures from Mike's workshops
More than two-thirds of participants use ChatGPT several times a week
One quarter saves more than three hours a week
The time saved goes into creative and strategic tasks
Practical example: solar panel installer
From revenue forecasting with a proprietary algorithm to rain measurement using a microphone (Fraunhofer algorithm) as a new business line – a continuous example across all AI stages.
