About this event

Cowork Crew takes the best bits of coworking and networking and jumbles it together in a once-a-month 1 day event.

It’s all about that magic that happens when you bring freelancers and micro business owners together.

The aim is for us to all do better together because we have each other.

Learn some stuff, make friends with others who get what it’s like to wear-all-the-hats, solve our shared challenges and beat the loneliness that can come with self-employed life.

From AI frustration to AI confidence: how independent professionals get reliable results from GenAI. You’ve tried ChatGPT or similar AI tools. Sometimes they help. Other times they create more work than they save.

For consultants and freelancers, the problem isn’t access to AI. It’s knowing how to use it in a way that consistently improves your work without sacrificing quality, judgement, or credibility.

In this practical 20-minute session, Nick will share a simple framework for working with GenAI that turns unpredictable outputs into something you can actually rely on. With before-and-after examples, you’ll see how the same approach can be applied across everyday tasks like planning, drafting, and reviewing work.

You’ll leave with a lightweight template you can use immediately to make AI a genuine support in your workflow, not another distraction.
