Instructor Craig Turner has taught 2,000 organizations about AI since 2022. He teaches this course quarterly.
Among the valuable lessons in this 50-minute class, you are shown how to:
Shift from AI prompts to repeatable systems. Learn how advisors reduce recurring work through deliberate AI design. |
04:30 |
Identify tasks AI should partially remove from workflows. Focus on reclaiming time without eliminating professional judgment. |
05:00 |
Apply the task-process-system-leverage framework. Translate daily advisor work into scalable, repeatable operational systems. |
05:30 |

06:00 |
Evaluate AI time savings using advisor ROI logic. Link reclaimed time directly to business growth opportunities. |

Build ethical guardrails directly into AI instructions. Prevent compliance issues by embedding boundaries upfront. |
05:00 |
Recognize AI as an information intermediary for clients. Prepare for client questions shaped by AI-generated responses. |
