Free live workshop · Friday, December 11, 2026

Grow your business, without it needing more from you.

I’m peeling open the curtains on how we actually use AI and AiMS-HQ with our clients – and how I use them together as a coach to build a practice that scales (without needing more of me). Not slides about the future. The real thing. Live.

Hosted by Jeff Bouwman, Co-Founder and CEO of The AiMS Institute

  • Fri, Dec 11
  • 11am ET (10am CT · 9am MT · 8am PT · noon AT)
  • 90 minutes
  • Live on Zoom
  • Free

100% free, with time to answer your questions live.

What you’ll walk away with

By the end of the workshop, you’ll…

If you coach:

  • See how to keep your clients making progress between sessions, without adding hours to your week.
  • Know how to add an AI guide to proven management disciplines – whether you’re using AiMS, EOS, Scaling Up or something else – without replacing what already works.
  • Have a clear way to grow your practice through ongoing support between sessions, not just more one-off engagements.
  • Get a backstage view of how we built our own coaching practice using AI, so you can scale yours too.

If you own the business:

  • Understand why traditional approaches to implementing management disciplines don’t stick, and why things keep coming back to you.
  • See how to invite your team in and give them access to the data, goals and context they need to make decisions.
  • See how real teams take ownership when they build the plan together, and how they keep it going after the planning day.
  • Know where AI can actually help your team follow through, and where it can’t.

Built for two kinds of people

You’re a business coach with clients already. You have your own framework and experience – or you’re skilled with EOS, Scaling Up or something similar – and you want your clients to keep moving between sessions.

You own a business and you’re in one of two places:

  • You’ve tried putting management disciplines in place (or you know you need to), but you haven’t gotten the buy-in you’d hoped for, and things still default back to you.
  • You’re curious how AI and business coaching can work together – and what that could mean for your team.

(Not quite either? Pick “Other” on the form and tell me a bit about your role.)

The real thing, not a pitch deck

90 minutes, live, with real examples – and time for your questions.

  • The shared workspace my clients run on.Strategy, people, priorities, meetings, commitments and decisions, all in one place. We call it AiMS-HQ.
  • An AI guide doing the between-session work.It helps people prep meetings, build quarterly plans and work through issues – at 2pm on a Tuesday or 10pm on a Sunday. That’s AiMEE, our AI guide.
  • How I run my own week as a coach now.So the work carries on between sessions, and I get more space to be more of “ME”.
  • Where AI carries the load – and where people matter most.Where the AI guide does the work, and where a coach’s judgment and presence make the difference.
  • Real-time examples and your questions, live.That’s why we keep it small.
  • Bonus: how I’m using other AI tools to unlock capacity at the same time.

Heck, take what you learn and use it for yourself if you want.

Hi, I’m Jeff

I’m the Co-Founder and CEO of The AiMS Institute and AiMS-HQ. Before that, I spent 13 years in manufacturing – including being one of two people running a $200M company with 600 people. Since then, I’ve facilitated more than 200 strategic planning workshops with over 30 companies.

For 12 years, I’ve been chasing one question: how can we help business owners build companies that become more capable as they grow, without everything continuing to depend on them?

Funny thing – I spent my career helping owners become less essential to their businesses, while building one where I stayed pretty damn essential myself. So for the last 18 months, we’ve been building AI coaches, agents and bots grounded in Appreciative Inquiry, SOAR and AiMS practices. Appreciative Inquiry is simple at heart: start from what’s already working, and build on it. Every one of my clients now uses these tools between sessions.

I call it both kinds of AI working together – artificial intelligence and appreciative inquiry. In this workshop, I’ll show you exactly what that looks like.

Questions, answered

Is it really free?

Yes – the workshop is 100% free.

Will there be a replay?

Yes – but only for the people who show up live. So block the time and come hang out.

Where do I get the Zoom link?

By email, right after you register. Check your spam or promotions folder if it doesn’t show up within a few minutes.

Do I need to use AiMS to get value from this?

No. Take what you learn and use it for yourself if you want.

I’m not a coach or a business owner. Can I still come?

Absolutely. Pick “Other” on the form and tell me a bit about your role.

Come see it live on December 11

The coaching model changed. So I did too. Come see the system, meet our AI guide and see how it all fits together – live.

P.S. I’ll also show you how I’m using other AI tools to unlock capacity at the same time.
