Abstract

The workshop moves beyond prompt exercises by asking participants to redesign a real entrepreneurial workflow. It separates chat, fixed automation, single agents and multi-agent systems and introduces complexity only where evidence and responsibility remain visible.

Research question

Which parts of a real workflow should be captured, delegated, verified or deliberately remain a human responsibility?

Method

Participants map a real decision, identify source material and failure paths, choose the least complex useful automation level and define approval gates and reusable documentation.

Findings

  • The right unit of design is the decision, not the prompt.
  • Shared truth and correction paths matter before autonomy.
  • A workshop creates lasting value when participants leave with an inspectable method.

Limitations

  • The method requires adaptation to each organization’s access, data and governance.
  • Synthetic analysis must not be presented as customer evidence.
