At The School of Life and Philosophy at Work, he empowers individuals and teams to solve problems more effectively, make better decisions, and work more cohesively. His sessions are designed to be practical and engaging, offering actionable insights that participants can immediately apply to their work and lives.
All sessions by Steven →Generative AI is transforming knowledge work. But while the technology feels revolutionary, the underlying challenge is not new. Throughout history, every major cognitive tool- from writing and the printing press to calculators and the Internet- has extended human capability while changing the way we think.
AI is simply the latest chapter in that story. This interactive talk explores one of the defining challenges of the AI era: how do we use AI without outsourcing the judgment that makes us effective?
Drawing on philosophy, cognitive psychology and the latest research into AI, participants discover how AI can be used as a thinking partner to challenge assumptions, expose blind spots and improve decision-making - while avoiding the risks of bias, over-reliance and the gradual erosion of independent judgement.
Rather than asking, "How can AI do our work?", this session asks a more important question: "How can AI make us better thinkers?"
During the expert session, Steven Campbell-Harris engages the audience through interactive exercises, Q&A sessions, and live demonstrations.
Learn practical techniques for using AI as a challenger,sounding board and perspective generator that strengthens reasoning rather than simply producing answers.
Discover the Extension–Erosion Principle - a framework for understanding what technologies like AI give us, what they risk taking away, and how to preserve independent thinking.
Develop practical strategies to overcome cognitive bias, clarify complex problems and use AI to strengthen judgement without sacrificing intellectual autonomy.
No prior knowledge is assumed. It is built for a general working audience, and people who already know the subject get the research and the practical side rather than an introduction. What the hour itself covers: Generative AI is transforming knowledge work. But while the technology feels revolutionary, the underlying challenge is not new.
A masterclass. Steven Campbell-Harris takes your colleagues through the subject and the reasoning behind it, and answers live questions. It is practical in what people take away, without the hour turning into an exercise class.
Steven Campbell-Harris is one of the experts we auditioned ourselves, and we produce every session so we see how each one lands. Participants rate this session 4.0 out of 5, across 31 responses, and rate Steven personally 4.3 out of 5.
It is interactive, and the block higher up on this page says exactly how for this session. Nobody has to speak up who does not want to: the chat and the polls carry most of it, and the questions can come in anonymously.
It runs 45 min / 15 min: the talk, then live questions. All you do is pick a date. We brief Steven, produce the session, host and moderate it, run the Q&A, and send you the report within an hour of the end.
A team, a department, an employee network or every single employee at once, with no cap and no per-seat price. It runs inside your own Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Google Meet, or on a branded page we build. No integration, no login, no company device or e-mail.
The session is delivered in English. You can add high accuracy live subtitles in 8, 16 or 24 languages, so everyone follows in their own. That is a paid option, priced by the number of languages you need.
No, and that is by design. There is nothing to install, nothing to integrate and no connection to your systems, so there is nothing for IT to validate: we join your own Teams, Zoom or Meet as a guest speaker, or we host a page and your people open a link. No software, no accounts, and no data of yours that we can reach. It is why hundreds of companies, among them some of the largest technology and financial firms in the world, were able to start within a day.
We never receive or hold personal data about your employees. Because the session runs in your own environment, attendance and identity stay with you, and what we report back is aggregated: numbers, ratings and survey answers, not people. That is also why IT approval usually takes minutes rather than weeks.
You keep the recording and can share it internally. You also get attendance over time, participant ratings for the content and the speaker, the survey answers, and the topics your people asked for next.
Many of us think of our ‘problems’ in a very limiting way- as things that are broken which need to be fixed.
In today’s fast-changing world, learning can no longer depend solely on formal training or external direction.
We often think innovation begins with a brilliant idea, but the real breakthrough usually comes earlier.
