What you'll learn

What ChatGPT Agent Mode Actually Does

A plain-English tour of Agent Mode, the tools it uses, and why it can prep a briefing while regular ChatGPT cannot.

The 4 Building Blocks of a Briefing Agent

Goal, inputs, tools, output. Learn what to define before you build, so the agent finishes the job instead of stalling.

Watch the Briefing Agent Get Built Live

See an agent built from scratch that researches a stakeholder, pulls from your calendar, and produces a briefing doc.

The Prompt Pattern That Makes It Reliable

The exact prompt structure used in the demo, so your agent produces a briefing you can actually walk into a meeting with

How to Adapt the Agent to Other Project Management Work

Take the same pattern to status reports, risk scans, vendor evals, or any synthesis task that eats your week.

Why this topic matters

For project & program managers, ops leaders, and delivery managers who lose hours prepping for stakeholder meetings: pulling news, scanning emails, checking calendars, drafting talking points. Most have never built an agent because no one walks them through it. You'll leave with a working agent blueprint you can adapt to your own project workflow by the end of the week.
