About this meeting...
In this hands-on session, attendees will learn how to build a personalized AI assistant (“coach”) that supports common Total Rewards and HR workflows, from employee communications and manager FAQs to job architecture drafts and comp philosophy narratives. Participants will learn practical, transferable frameworks for using AI tools safely and effectively, and will leave with something they’ve built that's immediately valuable in their day-to-day work.
- Learn practical frameworks for using generative AI responsibly in HR and Total Rewards contexts
- Identify high impact use cases where AI can improve efficiency and quality of work
- Build and customize an AI assistant that supports real-world Total Rewards workflows
Note: This session is tool-agnostic and designed to work across major AI platforms. Participants will use their own accounts (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, or Copilot). For those without a paid or work account, Gemini’s free version includes assistant-building functionality (“Gems”).
