Subject: Professional development request — AI-Native Builder

Dear manager,

Our team has invested in access to AI tools, but so far we’ve been left to figure things out on our own. Without a clear process and best practices, it’s easy to spend time experimenting without turning that effort into better products or more effective work.

I’d like to take the AI-Native Builder Accelerator to learn a playbook for impact and apply it to our team’s projects and recurring work.

What the accelerator covers

The AI-Native Builder 16-Day Accelerator for Product Builders and Leaders teaches the practical playbook to build, lead and thrive in the AI age. It focuses on Claude Code, Codex, and GrokBot and covers:

  • How to turn an idea into a clear plan and build working features with coding agents.
  • How to test, verify and fix AI-generated code before shipping.
  • How to create Agent Skills that use our team’s workflows and company knowledge.
  • How to connect agents to our tools and data through plugins and MCPs.
  • How to automate recurring tasks so our team can spend less time on repetitive work.
  • How to review AI output and manage security, privacy and data access.
  • How to use multiple agents and models to work on bugs and features in parallel.

Every seat includes access to all live session recordings, bonus material, a completion certificate, and access to the AI-Native Builders Club Slack Community.

Why this matters for our team and company

My goal is to turn these methods into faster product iteration and less time spent on repetitive work. I’ll bring back:

  • A working project built with Claude Code or Codex
  • A set of Agent Skills for me and our team to use our building and knowledge work processes
  • Reusable workflows and frameworks that I can apply to my work
