Who this theme is for
Book it if

- You want one process measurably better inside a quarter
Skip it if
- You need a platform decision, a vendor shortlist or a licence negotiation
- The gap is headcount, not method
- The room expects a motivational talk about AI

What this theme becomes on your desk
Each module has clear learning objectives. The examples and exercises are selected according to the participants’ roles and working context.
A corporate finance desk that rebuilds the same memo every deal
Modules 1.1 and 1.2. The room takes one closed deal and a 100-page data pack. What comes out is a synthesis workflow, a brief template and three mega-prompts written in the desk's own wording.
A client onboarding file that takes weeks to assemble
Modules 1.2 and 2.2. The chase becomes a documented pass: extraction workflow, checklist of what is missing, triage rule for the next file that lands.
Booking this theme
Option AStandalone Workshop
The 3h20 workshop, interactive, 10 to 12 participants, on site, with use cases from your sector. Nothing to prepare beforehand.
Option BRapid Assessment + Customised Workshop
Two or three days with your processes first, then the workshop with every exercise built on your own documents and workflows.
Option CCustomised Workshop + Video LMS
Everything in option B, plus a 3 to 5 minute micro-learning capsule delivered into your LMS, so the method is still there when the next joiner arrives.
Every module is quoted according to the audience, level of adaptation and delivery arrangements. Following a 30-minute discussion, eLearn2grow provides a written proposal. Larger cohorts, multi-module programmes and delivery outside Hong Kong can also be quoted.
The person in the room
Every module is designed and facilitated by David Daoud, combining more than 20 years of banking transformation experience with practical AI capability building.

Next step
One 30-minute call is enough to say which module fits your room, and whether you need the assessment first. Past sessions are on the YouTube channel if you would rather judge the teaching before you book anything.
