Workshops & Seminars

Keep it Human offers practical, research-backed AI for business workshops and seminars to help organizations stay in charge of what happens next.

Founder & CEO

Maura Charles

Maura Charles spent 25 years as the human who fixed what wasn't working inside Fortune 500 organizations before founding Keep it Human to help companies do it right the first time.

Her workshops and intensives are equal parts wake-up call and action plan: what AI actually does, what it costs you if you don't pay attention, and exactly what to do about it.

Three Tiers of Engagement

From public workshops to private intensives — every session is built around one principle: humans stay in charge.

Tier 1

Tier 2

Humans Decide. AI Complies.

Targeted half-day sessions for leadership teams and product & technology teams.

Tier 3

Private Intensives

Rigorous diagnostics and full-day facilitated sessions for senior leaders ready to act.

Tier 1 — Public Workshops

Still in Charge: What You Need to Know Before You Hand the Keys to AI

60-Minute Keynote with Q&A

High-impact session for conferences, association meetings, and corporate events. Covers AI behaviors, biases, and blind spots — plus a clear framework for staying in charge.

Half-Day Workshop

A deeper dive for organizations ready to move from awareness to action. Structured working sessions where teams apply the framework to their own context.

Tier 1 — Public Workshops

AI 101 for Organizations

The most effective AI training isn't about the tools — it's about building the judgment to use them well. Hands-on, no-jargon, and built around real workflows. Teams leave with prompts, templates, and a shared foundation for human-centered AI adoption.

Hands-on & no-jargon

Built around real workflows your team already uses

Practical takeaways

Prompts and templates your team can use immediately

Shared foundation

A common language for human-centered AI adoption

Tier 2 — Humans Decide. AI Complies.

For Leadership Teams

The most consequential AI decisions in your organization aren't being made by your technology team. They're being made by you. This half-day session helps C-suite leaders define where human judgment is non-negotiable and what responsible AI governance looks like in practice.

Built around the Human Mandate Canvas — a structured framework for defining the boundaries of AI authority inside your organization.

Tier 2 — Humans Decide. AI Complies.

For Product & Technology Teams

Your team is already building with AI. The question is whether anyone's decided what humans still own — and what happens when that line disappears.

This half-day working session gives product and engineering leaders the structure to make AI decisions they can stand behind, ship faster without losing accountability, and stop treating "we'll figure out governance later" as a strategy.

1

Decision Authority

A clear framework for which calls stay human, which get automated, and who's accountable when it's not obvious.

2

Shared Language

Your product, design, and engineering teams stop talking past each other on AI risk — and start building with a common operating vocabulary.

3

Workflow Integration

Not theoretical. Your team applies tools directly to active product decisions before they leave the room.

Tier 3 — Private Intensives

Intensive Sessions for Senior Leaders

Before you can protect what makes your organization human, you need to know where it lives. These private intensives are built for 6–12 senior leaders ready to do the hard work.
