how to stop using AI so badly
🚨 last call for supermanagers 🚨
The summer cohort of How to Be a Supermanager with AI starts this Wednesday, July 8; this will be the last one with live office hours. After this cohort, the course goes fully asynchronous. If you want to be able to get direct, hands-on help from me, this is your last chance.
Here’s why I think you should join us.
I asked 100 leaders what their biggest challenge is right now. A year ago, it was “how do I get my team to use AI?” Now it’s “how do I get my team to STOP using AI SO BADLY?”
That’s a hard problem to fix because it’s fundamentally a thinking problem, not a tool problem. AI amplifies whatever is in your head. If your people think clearly, AI is a jetpack. If they don’t, well, AI is still a jetpack, but in the most chaotic sense imaginable.
Over the past year and a half, I’ve evolved my course to solve exactly this problem. It is not your typical AI tools training. Over four weeks, you’ll automate low-impact work that eats your calendar, build coaching tools that give your team feedback the way you would, and then connect it all into an operating system for your role — so nothing you do starts from zero, and nothing goes out the door below your bar.
Don’t take my word for it! Here are some reviews from students:
This class was so enlightening and provided true practical guidance that I was able to capture in the moment but also immediately implement/apply to my work life. If you’re on the fence, sign up! There is a moneyback guarantee but you won’t need it, so helpful and truly worth every single penny. If Hilary offered another course, I would absolutely take it. - Senior Sales Director, Microsoft
I came into this course as someone who manages a small team and wears a lot of hats. I left with a suite of AI agents I use every day … Before this course, I knew AI could help me move faster. After this course, I understood how to build systems that multiply my judgment - not just my speed. If you’re a manager who wants to stop being the bottleneck, this is the course. - Founder, Coach Viva
I had been looking for the right AI course for the better part of a year. Before taking Hilary’s course, I was already using AI constantly, but this course helped me truly understand the difference between using it a lot and using it well. Hilary has a rare ability to make the concepts feel approachable and immediately applicable for anyone leading a team. The use cases she shares are grounded and practical, and she gives you the framework to build your own. Not to mention that she generously shares some of her own tools in the course material. Honestly, a great investment of both my time and money. If you’re a leader looking to move from “I use AI” to “I use AI effectively for my own benefit and the benefit of my team” this is the course for you. - Senior Enterprise Product Director, EF
How the course works: Each week includes:
A hands-on build guide that walks you step by step through building a real tool — a coaching tool that gives feedback the way you would, a workflow that automates a task off your plate, an evaluator that holds your team's work to your standard. Follow it at your own pace, or build alongside a recorded session from an earlier cohort.
Video lecture content covering the thinking behind the building: how to decompose a problem so AI can actually help, how to give AI the context it needs, and how to tell the difference between mediocre and excellent output.
4x office hours across different global time zones, so you can ask me whatever you’re stuck on — live. (New this cohort, and the last time I’ll offer them live.)
All the content is available in my custom portal built specifically for this course. You’ll also find recorded demos of me working (including how I automate workflows, how I run my life/work, how I build tools, how I create decks, etc).
Most students get it reimbursed by their employer, there are team discounts if you bring colleagues, and Maven backs it with a money-back guarantee … so the only real risk is spending another quarter reviewing AI slop :)
Reach out with any questions. I hope to see you there!
