Free Learning Series: Building Agentic AI Workflows
Three free Friday sessions on building AI workflows that actually work
Over the next three Fridays, I’m running free Lightning Lessons on Maven that walk through a practical approach to implementing agentic AI in your work.
Lightning Lesson Sequence
Friday, Jan 16: Design Your First Skill-Powered Workflow
Learn to decompose your workflow into steps that reveal which tasks can be encapsulated into reusable skills. Then build and run your first skill-powered workflow.
Friday, Jan 23: Deconstruct Your Workflows for Agentic AI
Learn to break down your work into steps that AI can execute. This is the foundation—you can’t automate what you haven’t articulated.
Friday, Jan 30: Build Your Agentic Workflow Registry
Build a system that gives you a holistic view of every workflow you execute and which AI tools operationalize them. You’ll leave with a registry and an approach for managing your IP as a living system.
Each session is 30 minutes. You can attend all three or just the ones relevant to where you are. No prerequisites—just practical implementation guidance.
If you can’t attend live, still sign up—you’ll get the deck and video right after each event.
If you’re serious about building AI-powered workflows, these sessions will help you structure your approach.
Please share with friends and colleagues who could benefit from these sessions.
See you there!

Really solid framework here James. The registry concept for managing workflows as living IP is kinda brilliant becuase most people treat agentic systems like throwaway scripts instead of actual assets. I've built similiar tracking systems for ML pipelines and the versioning clarity alone saves weeks of debugging when somethng breaks in production.
