SUMMARY:SBDC -- AI Foundation for Small Business Owners How to Think\, Prompt\, and Work with AI
DESCRIPTION:This workshop is designed for business owners with little to no experience using AI tools and focuses on building a practical foundation for working effectively with AI in everyday business operations. Rather than treating AI as a magic solution\, attendees will learn how to think strategically about using AI as a business assistant for marketing\, operations\, communication\, planning\, and problem solving.      The session emphasizes the owner’s role in providing context\, direction\, and refinement to generate useful results\, while also teaching participants how to write stronger prompts\, evaluate outputs critically\, and apply AI tools in ways that save time and improve decision-making.
