PMI Austin Chapter

AI can help with your work. But what should you actually use it for?

At PMI Austin’s September Chapter Meeting, you’ll learn a practical framework for deciding where AI belongs in your workflow and where it doesn’t.

Edwin Sequeira will introduce a four-layer Personal Operating System:

Capture → Context → Retrieval → Generation

You’ll explore how to:

-Map a recurring project workflow across the four layers
-Identify appropriate information sources for AI-assisted work
-Decide which tasks are suitable for AI assistance and which should remain manual
-Apply governance considerations such as data sensitivity and verification
-Build a 30-day experiment with measurable success criteria

You don’t need to connect everything at once. Start with one high-value workflow and learn from it.

Meet our September Chapter Meeting speaker: Edwin Sequeira, Principal Product Manager at Kizen.

With more than 20 years of experience spanning product management, operations, engineering, and organizational leadership, Edwin builds AI-powered products that automate critical workflows across industries.

While onboarding into a new product, domain, and toolchain, Edwin faced a challenge many project professionals know well: fragmented context.

His solution was to develop a Personal Operating System that uses AI to support recurring product and project-management workflows.

On September 22, he’ll share what worked, what didn’t, and how you can begin experimenting with a similar approach in your own work.
