I help organisations turn AI from confusion and noise into clear, confident, everyday use that delivers immediate productivity gains.
Companies bring me in when they don’t have time for experimentation, internal debate, or theoretical training. They need someone who can step in, simplify the message, calm the room, and get people using AI properly and responsibly from day one.
If you’re under pressure to upskill teams quickly, reduce workload, and show real results, you’re in the right place.

Who I Am
I’m Des O’Connor, an AI trainer, speaker, and advisor with over 20 years’ experience delivering professional training, corporate programmes, and large-scale learning initiatives.
Since 2024, my work has focused exclusively on AI adoption from a business-critical perspective. I help non-technical teams understand AI clearly, use it safely, and apply it directly to the work they already do.
I’m brought in when organisations need clarity, confidence, and momentum fast, without disruption or unnecessary complexity.
What I Do (And Why It Works)
Corporate AI Training That Actually Changes How People Work
This is not generic AI training.
Your teams do not sit through abstract demos or tool overload. They learn how to apply AI immediately to their real tasks, decisions, and responsibilities.
Teams leave with:
- Clear understanding of where AI fits into their role
- Practical ways to save hours every week
- Strong prompting skills that improve output quality
- Repeatable workflows for admin, communication, and reporting
- Confidence to use AI without fear or hesitation
The focus is behaviour change and adoption, not awareness.
Executive and Team Performance Coaching
When leaders and teams are overloaded, AI alone isn’t the answer. Clarity is.
I work with executives and teams to remove noise, sharpen thinking, and improve execution using simple frameworks supported by AI where it adds genuine value.
The result:
- Faster decisions
- Clearer communication
- Less rework and friction
- Teams aligned around what actually matters
The focus is behaviour change and adoption, not awareness.
Keynote Talks That Land and Drive Action
My talks are designed to do one thing. Move people from uncertainty to action.
Topics include:
- Practical AI adoption in real organisations
- Productivity at scale
- Leadership in the AI era
- The future of work and modern roles
Audiences leave with clarity, not confusion, and a clear sense of what to do next.
AI Integration and Automation (When Organisations Are Ready)
Fr organisations that want more than training, I support the design and rollout of AI-supported systems that reduce workload and improve consistency
This includes:
- AI assistants for everyday team tasks
- Workflow and CRM optimisation
- Staff-friendly automation and onboarding
- AI-supported internal training and reinforcement
Everything is designed to make work lighter, not more complex.
