Course Description:
You’ve watched the webinars. You’ve heard the buzz. Now it’s time to actually build it.
The Claude AI Workshop is a full-day, hands-on intensive for MDIB CEOs ready to put AI to work in their practice — not as a novelty, but as a real operating system for the way they lead. This isn’t a lecture you half-watch with one eye on your inbox. You’ll leave with your own working “CEO Brain” set up in Claude, real content and communications drafted in your voice, and a concrete 90-day plan to bring it all home to your team.
Held at the tail end of CEO Cohort B weekend at the Hermitage Hotel in Nashville, this workshop is designed for busy practice owners who want the how, not just the why.
Course Objectives:
By the end of the day, attendees will be able to:
- Set up and personalize Claude as a working “CEO Brain” for their practice, using the HIVE prompting framework to get consistently useful, practice-specific answers.
- Apply AI to real practice operations — drafting patient communications, HR materials, and social content in their own voice, with clear boundaries around what should (and shouldn’t) go through AI.
- Build a concrete 90-day adoption plan to bring AI into their day-to-day leadership after they leave the room, with peer accountability already in place.

About The Speaker

She is a mother and a certified pediatric dentist, a certification achieved by only 5% of all dentists in the U.S. Dr. Yum is the former founder and practice owner of Yummy Dental & Orthodontics for Kids and she is also the founder and CEO of Mommy Dentists in Business.
Mommy Dentists in Business was started in June of 2017 by Dr. Grace Yum, while on a business trip with her husband.

In addition to managing the MDIB community, Dr. Yum hosts her own podcast, Mommy Dentists in Business Podcast. With 20 seasons and counting, Dr. Yum’s podcast has been in the iTunes top 100, was ranked #3 of 15 of the top dental podcasts by Patterson Dental’s “Off the Cusp” publication and has been downloaded over 200,000 times.

Dr. Yum has appeared and was featured on TODAY Show on NBC nationally, NBC Chicago as a repeat guest, Parents Magazine, Parenting Magazine, Chicago Parent Magazine.

About The Speaker
Dr. Nada Albatish
Dr. Nada Albatish owns and operates a multidisciplinary practice, All Smiles Dental Centre, just north of Toronto. As a passionate learner, she first completed a GPR, followed by hundreds of hours of CE each year. She is a fact finder – always researching, looking for evidence, and understanding the whys of what we do in practice as dentists.
Nada started her current practice from scratch as a solo practitioner and quickly realized she needed a strong support team as well as a team of skilled doctors in multiple specialties to help her achieve her goals as a comprehensive dentist. Today, Nada’s niche is complex and rehabilitative dentistry, supported by a team of 30, including general practitioners and specialists.
Nada is honored to serve as Faculty for Clinical Mastery Series, curator for Restorative Nation, co-author a book, write articles, and speak at various dental events. Nada is inspired by helping dentists to achieve excellence, predictability, and confidence in their craft. She is committed to the success of her patients, colleagues, and the advancement of the dental profession at large.
As a mother to two beautiful girls, Nada is blessed every day to be able to see the world through the eyes of her little people. In her free time, which she has learned to intentionally create on a weekly basis, she loves to exercise, eat good food, and spend time with her girls doing absolutely nothing except living in the moments. During the 20% of the year that Toronto has good weather, she finds peace in water sports, especially paddle boarding on the lake under the sun. The rest of the year she creates the same feeling by traveling!
