Course Overview

AI can accelerate thinking, but it cannot replace critical judgment.

In a world where artificial intelligence accelerates information, analysis, communication, and decision-making, the ability to think critically is more essential than ever. AI can help leaders generate ideas, summarize information, and explore possibilities quickly, but it cannot determine what is accurate, ethical, relevant, or wise. This workshop helps participants use critical insight to validate AI-assisted output, challenge assumptions, reduce bias, and apply sound human judgment to leadership decisions.

Thinking With Critical Insight using A.I. Course Overview

Learning Objectives

  • Apply the four major steps of critical thinking to AI-supported decisions and workflows
  • Explain sources of human and AI-enabled bias and how to minimize them through objectivity, validation, and open-mindedness
  • Evaluate, identify, and distinguish between relevant, irrelevant, unsupported, and AI-generated information
  • Use curiosity and stronger questions to improve AI prompts, human reasoning, and final judgment

COURSE AGENDA

In this workshop, participants learn to use AI as a thinking partner while keeping critical thinking at the center of the process. Using the same four-section flow as Thinking with Critical Insight, participants explore how open-mindedness, analysis, and evaluation, validation and logic become crucial in human judgement. The course emphasizes practical leadership habits: ask better questions, organize information, test outputs, reduce bias where possible, and decide responsibly.
