Navigating the AI Era: A Free Seminar for Creatives

In response to the rapid evolution of AI and data utilization in today's workplace, C&R Corporation (C&R) is hosting a free online seminar titled “Is It Okay to Work Like This in the AI Era? Data and Thought Organization Techniques for Creatives” on June 19, 2026. The seminar aims to address the doubts and uncertainties that many creatives face regarding their skills and decisions when utilizing AI tools.

As AI becomes increasingly integrated into everyday tasks, many professionals grapple with questions like: “Am I using AI tools correctly?”, “How can I justify my decisions when clients ask for evidence?”, and “How much of what I read about data and AI can I genuinely trust?” These concerns are not solely rooted in skill deficits but often arise from a lack of clarity in linking business processes with data interpretation. The seminar, led by data strategist Takahito Kagoshima, will provide insights on how to shift your mindset and work approach in this evolving landscape.

Participants will not only learn how to operate tools but will also gain crucial insights into how to make sound judgments and offer clear explanations to clients. The seminar will clarify how to determine when to rely on AI and when a human touch is necessary, ensuring that attendees leave with a robust foundational understanding of how to effectively communicate their insights.
