Small Group Activity (15 minutes!)

In a breakout room, take 3 minutes to decide as a group which of these prompts you want to test:

Use AI to identify competitive advantages in the a consulting industry (IT Consulting, Management Consulting, HR Consulting, or Environmental Consulting for example)
Outline the core competencies of a consulting job/role using AI
Describe the competitive landscape for Bain & Company

Once your group has decided on a prompt, for the next 5 minutes, individually try using an AI Tool of your choice to try to answer the prompt.

After everyone in the small group has tried to answer the prompt using an AI Tool, share your processes with each other! Take about 5 minutes to look at what AI Tool your peers chose and why, and how your peers began answering the same prompt.

Once you have shared with your peers, take 2 minutes to refine your process individually.

If there is time, come back together and discuss the refining process & how it changed your results.

Discussion/Large Group Share Out

How did your initial prompts look similar to others in your small group? How were they different?
