The Build Day

Human by Design. Powered by Technology.

Three tracks in the morning — you, building by hand. Two tracks in the afternoon — take what you built and power it up with technology. One day. Something finished by 4:30 PM.

AM Block · Human by Design

You. Building. By hand.

Three morning tracks. Pick the one that matches where you are right now.

AM1

Brand & Identity Shift

Build the image. Update the resume. Own the LinkedIn.

For people building (or rebuilding) how the industry sees them. Rewrite an ATS-ready resume, refresh or launch your LinkedIn profile, and leave with a personal narrative that actually sounds like you — sharpened by peer feedback in real time.

What you'll leave with

  • An ATS-friendly resume rewritten to land the interview
  • A refreshed LinkedIn profile (headline, About, Featured) — live by lunch
  • A personal narrative you can use in your next intro, interview, or pitch

Built for

Anyone building their image, making a pivot, or tired of being the field's best-kept secret.

AM2

Learning Asset Shift

Storyline. Rise. Vyond. AI. Pick your weapon.

For folks whose brand is solid and want to upskill. A working studio with pre-loaded accounts in Storyline, Rise, Vyond, and the AI tools you've been meaning to try. Build a real asset for a real project from your day job. You publish or export by the end of the block — no homework.

What you'll leave with

  • A working asset, published or exported, by the end of the block
  • Hands-on time in the tools without the IT ticket
  • Templates and patterns you can re-run at work next week

Built for

IDs, e-learning developers, and L&D and Talent Development pros who want reps in the tools.

AM3

Leadership Shift

Build the playbook. Activate the change.

Designed for leaders and leaders-of-leaders who don't need a resume rewrite or another tool tutorial — they need a playbook to activate change across their teams. Walk out with a 90-day team-activation plan, a change narrative, and the language to bring your org along with you.

What you'll leave with

  • A 90-day team activation playbook tailored to your org
  • A change narrative you can deliver at your next leadership meeting
  • Peer thinking partners from other L&D and Talent Development leadership seats

Built for

L&D and Talent Development directors, managers, and leaders-of-leaders shaping how their teams adapt.

PM Block · Powered by Technology

Take your AM work. Power it up.

Two afternoon tracks. Use technology to amplify what you built in the morning.

PM1

Portfolio Shift

Designed by human in the AM. Powered by tech in the PM.

You spent the morning building (resume, asset, or both). Now turn it into a published portfolio. We'll give you the platform, the templates, and the time — you walk out with a live portfolio URL you can drop into your LinkedIn, your next application, or your email signature before you leave the room.

What you'll leave with

  • A published portfolio site live by 4:30 PM
  • Your AM work — resume, asset, narrative — packaged as proof
  • A reusable structure you can keep growing after the event

Built for

Anyone who built something in the morning and wants the receipts online by tonight.

PM2

Technology Shift

Build a working tool — without writing code the old way.

The more advanced PM track. Bring a real problem from work — leave with a real tool you built: a custom GPT, a no-code app, an automation, or a vibe-coded portfolio that goes further than the standard template. Small-group format so you can go as deep as your skill level allows.

What you'll leave with

  • A working tool — custom GPT, no-code app, automation, or vibe-coded portfolio
  • A repeatable build pattern you can use for the next problem
  • A new answer when leadership asks 'can L&D and Talent Development actually build this?'

Built for

Curious builders, AI-forward L&D and Talent Development folks, and anyone done waiting on IT.
