AI Enablement Sprint

Building capability
from within.

We're building sprint-based AI programs for small teams. Six weeks, real work, designed around the challenges each business brings.

Why Now

Your team is already using AI. Here’s how to make it count.

"Workers are enthusiastic about AI and benefiting from productivity gains, yet lack confidence because leadership is not providing clear guidance, training or support."

EY Australian AI Workforce Blueprint, 2025
Globally
Australian SMBs
In the workforce
81K
people across 159 countries and 70 languages, interviewed about how they use AI
2 in 3
small businesses in Australia are using AI in some form
35%
of Australian workers have received formal AI training from their employer
81%
say AI has already made progress toward their stated goals or vision
5%
are fully enabled to realise AI’s potential benefits
66%
say they want their employer to provide more AI training

In 2026, AI skill mentions in Australian job postings reached 8.5%, up from 5.8% a year earlier. Indeed Hiring Lab, April 2026.

A Different Approach

Built for a team of five.

We're designing sprint-based programs, built around the specific challenges each organisation brings.

The same cohort can work together through multiple sprints, building capability over time. Or different cohorts can take on the same sprint at different times, so AI understanding spreads through the organisation naturally.

Each person leaves with a real project built during the program, work that lives in the organisation after the sprint ends.

Real capability
Each person builds genuine AI skills on work that matters to them, not abstract exercises designed for someone else's industry.
Shared language
Teams that learn together develop a common way of thinking about AI. That shared understanding is what makes change stick.
Something that lasts
Each sprint ends with real work, a project, a process, a tool, built during the program and left behind in the organisation.
How It Works

We start with a conversation.

01
Horizon conversation
A working session with leadership to map where the organisation is, what it needs short term, and where it is heading.
02
Scope of work
Vooee proposes which sprints, for which people, in what order, with clear pricing and a roadmap.
03
Formal agreement
The scope is confirmed, timing is locked, and the engagement begins.
04
Sprint delivery
Six weeks of structured work. Group sessions, individual coaching, real projects built.
The Program

Six weeks. Real work.

Before Week 1
Leadership conversation
We map the team's current tools and processes, what's working, what isn't, and agree the specific business challenges in scope for the sprint.
Week 1
AI Foundations
A 90-minute group session covering what AI is, what it cannot do, how to use it securely, and the questions people haven't felt comfortable asking yet.
Week 2
Team goal setting and project identification
A 90-minute workshop. The team aligns on shared goals for the sprint, and each person identifies the project they'll build.
Weeks 3 to 5
Individual coaching
3 x one-hour sessions per person with Jeanna, tailored to their specific role and tools.
Week 6
Closing session
The cohort comes back together. Each person shares what they built. The work lands in the organisation.
After the sprint
Feedback report to leadership
A short survey of the cohort feeds into a brief report for leadership, what worked, what didn't, where the team found value, and ideas for what to focus on next.
Price on application

Every sprint is scoped to fit.

Team size, context, and goals all shape what’s right. Pricing is available on application, get in touch and we can talk through what makes sense for your team.

Every sprint includes
  • Leadership discovery call before the program begins
  • AI Foundations group session, 90 minutes (includes security and responsible AI)
  • Team goal setting and project identification workshop, 90 minutes
  • 3 x individual 1:1 coaching sessions per person, one hour each
  • Closing cohort session, one hour
  • All preparation and session materials
  • Post-sprint feedback report to leadership
Common Questions

Things people ask.

Do I need to know anything about AI before the sprint begins?
No. The program starts with AI Foundations, which covers the basics, what AI is, what it can't do, and how to use it responsibly. You bring the work knowledge; we bring the AI context.
Is this for people running a business, or for the people who work in one?
Both. The sprint is designed to work for employees and the organisations they're part of. If you're curious about what this might mean for your team, register your interest and we can talk it through.
What kind of projects do people build during the sprint?
That depends entirely on the work. Each person identifies a real challenge or task from their own role, then builds something around it during the coaching weeks. Projects have included content workflows, client communication tools, and internal research processes, but the specifics are always shaped by the organisation.
How is this different from an AI training course?
Many training programs cover AI in the abstract. The sprint is built around your organisation's specific challenges, your tools, and your people. Participants don't just learn about AI, they build something real with it during the program.
Can one organisation run multiple sprints?
Yes. After the sprint ends, cohorts can enrol in further sprints as their capability grows. Different cohorts within the same organisation can also run the same sprint at different times, so AI understanding spreads through the business naturally.
Is the sprint only available for teams?
The sprint is built around a cohort of five, but Vooee works directly with sole traders and individual professionals who want to build real AI capability in their own practice. If that’s you, register your interest and we can work out what makes sense.
What AI tools does the sprint use?
We start with what you already have. Rather than prescribing a specific toolset, we work with the tools your team is already using or curious about. Where something better exists for a particular task, we'll say so. But the foundations we build (how to think about AI, how to prompt well, how to assess what a tool can and can't do, how to use it responsibly) apply to any tool. No one can be an expert in every AI tool right now. What matters is having the judgment to work with whichever tool is in front of you.
Is there ongoing support after the sprint ends?
Yes. For organisations that want steady guidance as things change, Vooee offers fractional advisory, ongoing AI strategy support on a regular basis, so leadership has a sounding board as new tools, questions, and decisions come up. Mention it when you register if that’s something you’d like to explore.

What’s in a name

The name Vooee.

“Vooee” is a play on VUI (shorthand for voice user interface), reflecting Jeanna’s background in audio and voice technology, and her belief that voice will become a more natural interface for many kinds of work.

The spelling also nods to the Australian bush call “cooee”: a simple voice call that bridges distance without fuss.

Together they speak to the kind of work Vooee is here to do: AI solutions that feel clear, useful and human.

Origin
Why I started Vooee

My career has followed an interesting trajectory. Media, strategy and technology. Radio sales. Agency leadership. Product launches. Multi-million dollar campaigns. Digital content, and voice AI at Amazon.

But the work I actually remember was never about “good business”.

Research
What the AI headlines leave out

AI stories tend to be either triumphant or cautionary. Both happen, and both can be true of the same organisation at the same time.

The part that determines whether any of it sticks rarely makes the news. That part is change management, and the research has known how to solve it for decades.

Perspective
Three Japanese ideas that shape how I think about AI
Anyone who knows me well knows I have a complicated relationship with Japan. It’s a long story. The short version involves Mount Fuji, a sake bar in Osaka, and a herd of deer in Nara. It’s a story for another time. Even so, and perhaps ironically, three Japanese ideas have quietly shaped the way I think about almost everything, including AI.
