ONE DAY HOBA TRANSFORMATION INTENSIVE
Las Vegas | August 2, 2026 | 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM PDT
WeWork Town Square, 6543 South Las Vegas Boulevard, Las Vegas, NV 89119
WHY YOUR AI STRATEGY IS BACKWARDS
(and the business-first process that fixes it)
You think you need an AI strategy. Here's what you actually need: a business transformation process. AI may be part of it. It may not. You'll know — because you'll have the process.
- ✓Complete the AI Transformation Readiness Scorecard — and reframe it
- ✓Learn the 4+1 improvement ladder (eliminate → standardize → optimize → automate → maybe AI)
- ✓Master the HOBA 6-step process: Focus → Control → Analyze → Evaluate → Design → Implement
- ✓See the case study: 450 processes, only 6 needed work, zero technology required
- ✓Build your 90-day business transformation roadmap — not an AI roadmap
- ✓Know exactly where AI fits (month 3, not month 1)
20–25 attendees maximum. One day. Real clarity. Your roadmap.

Real moments from a recent HOBA transformation intensive
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
MORNING: THE REALITY CHECK
The AI FOMO trap — why smart organisations buy the wrong thing
The Gartner Hype Cycle — where is AI right now?
The diving board analogy — why the scorecard puts you ahead of yourself
The 4+1 ladder — eliminate, standardize, optimize, automate, then maybe AI
The HOBA 6-step process — business first, technology later
Case Study 1: HR Transformation — 70% turnover fixed with zero technology
Case Study 2: UK Government — 10k to 50k+ applications when technology IS the answer
AFTERNOON: BUILDING THE RIGHT ROADMAP
The 90-day HOBA roadmap template
Month 1: Focus + Control (vision, governance — no AI)
Month 2: Analyze + Evaluate (current state, benefits — still no AI)
Month 3: Design + Implement (target state, evaluate AI as ONE option)
The AI fit decision framework — 5 questions to ask before buying
Interactive workshop: build your personal roadmap
