• Market Analysis: Use Olympia to gather insights on current trends in the specialty coffee market in the U.S., focusing on consumer preferences and successful product types.
• Brand Alignment: Investigate how other tea brands have successfully integrated coffee products into their lineup and what lessons can be learned.
• Resource Assessment: Determine what changes or additions are needed in Leaf & Bud’s current operations to accommodate coffee products, including potential supplier partnerships and training needs.

Objective:

• Develop a preliminary strategy for Leaf & Bud to introduce coffee products, based on insights gathered through Olympia. This strategy should consider product types, marketing approaches, and operational adjustments.

How to Use This Scenario in the Workshop:

• Walk through each task, demonstrating how to formulate questions for Olympia and interpret the AI’s responses.
• Show how to synthesize the information into actionable strategies.
• Highlight the thought process behind each decision, emphasizing how strategic insights can drive business expansion and diversification.

This scenario is similar enough to the main exercise that the skills and approaches demonstrated are directly applicable, yet different enough to ensure that the main exercise remains a unique challenge for the participants. This approach not only teaches the practical use of Olympia but also stimulates strategic thinking about business diversification. Let me know if this setup works for you or if you need further adjustments!

For Day 1 of the workshop, after covering the introduction to AI, Olympia, and conducting the hands-on tutorial with the demonstration scenario, you might want to include the following segments to round out the day:

1. Q&A Session:
   • Allocate time for a question and answer session where participants can clarify any doubts or inquire further about specific functionalities of Olympia or strategies discussed during the day.
2. Group Discussion:
   • Facilitate a group discussion to allow participants to share their thoughts on the potential applications of AI in their specific business contexts. This can help in networking among participants and also foster collaborative learning.
3. Review of Key Takeaways:
   • Summarize the key points covered throughout the day, emphasizing how they can be applied practically in the participants' businesses. This helps reinforce learning and ensures clarity on the workshop's objectives.
4. Preview of Day 2:
   • Give a brief overview of what to expect on the second day of the workshop. This could include more advanced uses of Olympia, case studies, or guest speakers who will share their experiences with AI in business.
5. Homework or Reflection Assignment:
   • If appropriate, assign a light homework or reflection task where participants can think about how they might start integrating AI solutions like Olympia into their business strategies. This could be a short plan or a set of goals they want to achieve using AI.
6. Networking Time:
   • End the day with some informal networking time. This allows participants to discuss their learnings and thoughts with peers and can be valuable for building professional relationships.

These segments will help ensure that the participants are well-prepared for the next day, while also providing them with the opportunity to digest and apply what they've learned on the first day. Let me know if you need details on any specific segment or if there’s anything else you’d like to add to the agenda!

Certainly! Here's how you can structure Slide 8 for the "Homework Assignment" to conclude Day 1 of the workshop effectively.
