Inside the project

Focus

How can a new technology become part of teams’ actual workflows?

The Arkas in İzmir in April project focused on connecting training and workshop needs with technology. The organization wanted not just to purchase new tools, but to embed them in the way its teams work.

The gap between technology and practice is the real challenge for most organizations. This project focused on closing that gap.

The ChatGPT-Assisted Problem Solving Training and Workshop we held with Arkas teams in İstanbul on 15 and 24 April and in İzmir on 29-30 April, Y.

The main barrier to AI adoption was not a lack of tools, but teams’ inability to connect the technology with their real business problems.

Scope

We delivered ChatGPT-assisted problem-solving training and workshops with teams in Istanbul and Izmir. We worked on developing solutions to complex problems by combining generative AI tools with analytical thinking.

Implementation

WHAT ROLE DID GENAI PLAY IN THIS PROJECT?

GenAI was positioned not as a tool that produces ready-made answers, but as a working partner that helps teams address their own problems through stronger questions. Every example was drawn from a real business context.

AI transformation begins not with purchasing new tools, but with people using them to ask stronger questions.
