AI Practice Guides
Oak & Reeds Interactive Training
Every Oak & Reeds workshop includes hands-on exercises that build real skills: giving feedback, navigating conflict, coaching a direct report, leading through change. The exercises work because they create a space to practice, not just learn about a concept.
These AI Practice Guides bring that same approach to your desk. Each guide contains a copy-paste prompt that walks you through one of our workshop exercises with AI as your practice partner. It asks you the same questions we would ask in a live session, helps you apply the framework to your real situation, and gives you something you can actually use tomorrow.
They are free, they take about 5 minutes, and they work with any AI tool.
How each guide works
- Open the guide and tap the button to copy the prompt
- Open your preferred AI tool (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or any other)
- Paste the prompt and hit send
- The AI walks you through the exercise, one question at a time
- You walk away with a personalized action plan or self-assessment
