Session Description
Agentic AI doesn’t just answer questions — it takes action: booking meetings, updating records, sending documents, chaining tasks together without a human clicking through each step. For business and nonprofit leaders, that’s a real opportunity to offload routine work, and a real risk if it’s adopted carelessly.
This workshop shows you, live, what agentic AI can actually do today — real demos, not slides — and where it still needs a human checking its work. As a SOC 2 Type II certified IT provider, we’ll also cover the security side: data exposure, unauthorized actions, prompt injection, and the guardrails that keep an agent from doing damage in your systems.
You’ll leave with a clear, practical picture of how agentic AI fits your organization — and how to pilot it safely.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Understand what makes an AI "agentic" — and how that's different from the chatbots you're already used to
- See live demos of agentic AI completing real, multi-step tasks
- Recognize where agentic AI can safely take on work for your organization, and where human approval still belongs in the loop
- Understand the security risks unique to agentic AI — data exposure, unauthorized actions, prompt injection — and how to guard against them
- Leave with a practical framework for piloting agentic AI without opening up new security or compliance risk
