We’ve shared that the OHUBAI Competency Program is launching — and that we’re hosting a live Q&A to walk through it. Here’s the why behind it. AI adoption is accelerating, but productivity gains remain uneven. McKinsey estimates generative AI could unlock $2.6–$4.4 trillion in annual value, yet many professionals are still using AI in fragmented, ad-hoc ways. The result isn’t transformation — it’s activity without leverage. The real divide isn’t access to tools. It’s who knows how to apply them well. Across industries, we’re already seeing it: ◾️ AI-enabled professionals completing core tasks 30–50% faster in writing, research, and analysis ◾️ Teams embedding AI into workflows — not just prompts — outperforming peers on speed and quality ◾️ Employers shifting from AI curiosity to AI competency expectations 📉 This gap is widening — quietly, but quickly. ⸻ 🧭 Why we’re hosting this live conversation The OHUBAI Competency Program is designed to help professionals move from experimenting with AI to using it as a practical productivity engine — grounded in real workflows, not theory. Ahead of the next cohort, we’re hosting a Live Ask Me Anything (Q&A) to bring clarity to: ◾️ What the program actually teaches ◾️ Who it’s built for (and who it’s not) ◾️ How participants apply AI in real work and team settings 📅 January 15, 2026 ⏰ 12:00 PM EST 📍 Live on Zoom 🔗 Register here: shorturl.at/... ⸻ 💼 Thinking about employer or sponsor support? Many participants join with backing from their employer or a professional sponsor. To support that, we’ve created a sponsorship request template hosted on Google Docs that you can copy, edit, or download. It clearly outlines the program, outcomes, and value for decision-makers. 📄 Access the template here: shorturl.at/... We’ll also address employer and team participation questions during the live Q&A. ⸻ 🚀 AI won’t create the next divide. Capability will.
