Okay, you're sending an email update to your close teammates. You might try opening with "Hey team. " An emoji and if you're me, maybe throw in a corny dad joke to try to keep them engaged. Now, that same email might not land so well with say your CEO or new client. Kind of makes you cringe, right? Now, obviously messages need to be tailored to the person receiving them. Your CEO might just need a quick bullet point summary, but your client on the other hand might need more reassurance and detailed solutions. Without help from AI, crafting several versions of the same message could take hours. Not everyone is a professional writer and it can be challenging to adjust your writing style to different audiences. It's also pretty common to get lost in endless rewrites. All this and you still need to make sure your core message comes through. Getting your communication just right is vital. And that's because you're doing more than just trying to share information, you're trying to achieve an objective. But if someone misunderstands your message or your tone, you could lose their of trust and that can lead to more questions, more meetings, and more reviews. Things can get pretty slow, inefficient, and draining real fast. But with Gemini, you have a writing partner that can help you produce multiple tailored email drafts in just seconds. In this course, you'll learn how to use AI to amplify the impact of your communication. We'll show you how you can combine your own voice and judgment with AI's power to help you generate, refine, and practice communication. Of course, the principles of effective communication are still timeless. Things like knowing your audience and delivering messaging effectively, they still matter. But now, we can use AI to deliver on those principles in a brand new way. Specifically, your role is to bring your strategic thinking and your emotional intelligence to the table. Here are five communication elements where your role is essential. The first is purpose and intent. This is all about defining the why or what you want your message to do. For example, do you want to persuade, to inform, de-escalate, or inspire? The second element is understanding your audience. Only you understand the priorities of your leadership, your client's needs, and your team's mindset. Without you, AI won't know the context and history of your relationship with your audience. Next is authenticity and voice. You want to make sure that any communication coming from you sounds authentically like you. You're the final editor that makes sure your message matches your personal or company brand and values. Then there's accountability. Keep in mind that you're responsible for the impact your words may have and any consequences they may bring. So, be sure to read every word. Finally, there's strategic judgment. Use your experience and your wisdom to choose a type of communication that works best, like an email versus a phone call or in some cases, no message at all. So, what is AI's role in this partnership? Well, you can use AI as a thought partner while you build your communication strategy and you can have it tackle time-consuming tasks. Let's look at a few areas where AI can help you reach your goals. First is brainstorming. You can describe a communication scenario, like how to position a new service for clients or how to share disappointing news. Then Gemini can provide you with options and thought starters as you evaluate how to approach the situation. Next is rapid drafting and variation. Sometimes the hardest thing is starting from a blank page. Within Gemini, Canvas can create multiple versions of communication, like business emails, one-page documents, and key talking points in seconds. And it can tailor all of them to different audiences. Now, you have something to work from. The third area is refinement and polish. Gemini can help you improve your message. It can instantly rephrase something to make it more clear. It can also adjust your tone of voice from formal to casual. And it can provide feedback on your work as you iterate. The last area is practice and simulation. You can rehearse a sales meeting or difficult conversation using Gemini live. And this can help you build confidence before the actual conversation happens. Now, you'll notice that I didn't list ghostwriter under AI's responsibilities. And that's because if you completely rely on AI, it might result in communication that's missing important context or just doesn't feel authentic. Remember, you and your voice are essential to the equation. Instead, you can use AI to speed up the editing process to help bring your voice to life. It can help give your wild ideas structure or help you get past that dreaded blank page. You might spend less time struggling with how to say something and more time improving what you want to say. When you use AI in the right way, you can get closer to the action or reaction you want to achieve with your communication. You'll find that your emails actually get read and people will follow through. Or your communication is clearer, reducing back and forth and getting to quicker decisions. And maybe your perspective is better

understood by your teammates or clients and as a result, you'll be more effective in informing or even changing their opinions. So, let's get rid of those long, confusing email threads and start communicating more clearly. Hi, I'm Clara from the Gemini marketing team. I don't know about you, but when I'm in meetings, I need to be fully engaged and present in the conversation, but taking notes at the same time can be challenging. So today, I'm going to take you through how I use Gemini in Google Meet to first take the notes and then help me turn those notes into an actionable plan that I can share with my team, you know, to make sure those action items we discussed actually get done. To follow along with me, you'll need access to Gemini in Google Workspace. Now first, when joining a meeting, turn on note-taking in Google Meet. Go to the pencil at the top right of the screen and click start taking notes. It's the blue button. Hey Clara, good to see you. Good to see you too, Mahi. Thanks for joining. So, I wanted to connect with you on the vendor issues we've been seeing and align on a plan. When the meeting ends, the meeting notes and transcript will get emailed to me since I was the meeting host. I'll grab the transcript from my email. Now, let's switch to the Gemini app to organize the notes. First, I'll attach the meeting transcript. You can download a sample transcript via the lab instructions to follow along with me. Now, let's give Gemini a persona, which will help it know what expertise to draw on as it performs a task for us. In this case, acting as a senior project manager, generate a report based on the attached transcript. The report must have three sections. A concise summary, a bulleted list of decisions, and a detailed table of action items. Specifically, columns action item, owner, and deadline. Now, let's run this and check out Gemini's output. It captured our discussion around issues with our vendors and it documented the key data points. Let's ask Gemini to help us evaluate the report so I know it's the right format for the attendees. You can adapt the criteria you give Gemini to suit your needs. Evaluate the report using these criteria. Brevity, clear action items, and accuracy. We got good marks on all the criteria, so we're good to go. I spend a lot of my day in meetings, so this has been a game-changer for me. It really allows me to stay 100% focused on the task at hand and the conversations that I'm having because I know that the notes and the action items are taken care of. Think about your meetings. How often does your team walk away with slightly different interpretations of what the next steps were? How would your focus change if you knew your notes and action items were taken care of? Hey everyone, I'm Clara and I work at Google. Now, when I'm creating proposals and I need to get buy-in from different people at work, I need to be prepared for their questions. There is nothing worse than presenting an idea you're really fired up about only to get a question you're not prepared for and it just totally kills the momentum. So, let's look at how we can use Gemini to help pressure test those presentations and be prepared for any questions that might arise. Let's say I work for a logistics company and I'm preparing for an important meeting. First, I'll upload my one-page proposal to Gemini. I can do this by clicking the plus button and adding my document from Drive. Next, I can prompt Gemini for feedback. I'll start with the context. I'm working on a proposal for a new GPS system for our logistics company. To help anticipate my stakeholders' feedback, I'll give Gemini a specific persona. Act as the approver, our head of operations, and review the one-pager attached. From your perspective, is there any information missing? Gemini uses advanced reasoning to generate its responses. You can see it thinking here. Okay, I have a rough idea, but I wonder if it's detailed enough. Let's ask for some more advice. For implementation and cost, I was thinking of using $3,000 of the proposed 25K budget for a two-month pilot program. Would that be enough detail for the one-pager, or would you want more?

### Segment 3 (10:00 - 15:00) [10:00]

Gemini is recommending that I add more specifics around scope and success metrics. We could add it ourselves, or we could ask Gemini to help with those details by telling it, "The pilot will include 15 vehicles, and the success metrics would be a 5% reduction in delivery time. " How would you write a two-sentence summary of this plan for the one-pager? Great. Here's a concise summary I can edit as needed and pull into my one-pager. In this example, we just gave Gemini one persona, but if you want to pressure test your work from different perspectives, you can add new personas to get more perspectives. If you're not sure what different stakeholder feedback you need, ask Gemini for advice. I certainly do, and I wish I had recently. For instance, I was a launch plan to various stakeholders, and I was asked what markets the particular feature would be launching in, and I wasn't prepared for that answer. Had I gone through this process and let Gemini know that I would be presenting to cross-functional stakeholders from regional markets, I probably would have been better prepared for that question. So, when was the last time you were surprised by feedback? Could you uncover any blind spots before you share your next big idea? Hi, I'm Clara, and I work on the Gemini marketing team. Often at work, I have to send the same message to multiple different people in slightly different ways. Each person is interested in different aspect of what I'm working on, or they require a slightly different communication style. This can take a lot of time. Let's say I work for a logistics company, and I have an important update I need to communicate to different audiences. I'll start by uploading a launch report that I want Gemini to work with. Now, I'll ask Gemini to analyze our document and extract key points, starting with some context. I'm a project manager responsible for the launch described in the document attached. I'm working on an email announcing launch to the full company. Now, let's add a task and format. Pull five key points from the document that I can use in my message. Okay. Gemini surfaced the five key points, like our recent service expansion and future growth plans. Now, let's customize the communications for different audiences. By asking Gemini to list each audience's priorities before developing the communications, we're using chain-of-thought prompting, a technique shown to significantly improve outputs. So, I'll ask Gemini to select some points specifically for two key stakeholders, our CFO and our operations manager. Start by thinking about their priorities based on the roles before choosing the points I should highlight for each. Okay. Let's see what points Gemini highlights. Great. We see that for the CFO, it highlights points related to the bottom line, and for operations manager, it focuses on execution. Now, I want to get the CFO email ready to send. Before we take those key points and draft the email, let's switch over to Canvas so I can write and workshop the emails with Gemini. I'll click on tools and select Canvas, and then give it our prompt. Draft the CFO email. Include the key points as bullets. Great. Now, we can easily adjust the comms to by highlighting what we want to edit. Notice how the Ask Gemini box appears here when I highlight this? Let's ask Gemini to make this shorter. And now I have an email tailored for our CFO. We can repeat this process for other stakeholders, too. I like using Canvas to help me tailor launch messaging based on different audiences, like more technical AI enthusiasts or consumer. How could using Canvas help you get more buy-in from stakeholders and save you time? Hi, I'm Clara. I work in product marketing on the Gemini app at Google. Now, when I'm having high-stakes conversations like sales pitches, presentations, or difficult one-on-ones, it's crucial that I'm able to perform my best, really deliver the points that I need to make, and be persuasive. In this video, we're going to use Gemini Live to simulate a challenging conversation and get feedback on how we did. Now, to access Gemini Live, you'll need to download the Gemini mobile app on your phone. When we use Gemini Live, we're not

### Segment 4 (15:00 - 17:00) [15:00]

prompting, we're having a natural, free-flowing conversation. Let's say I wanted to practice a sales pitch with a potential customer. I'll show you what that looks like. To start, click into Live. Hey Gemini, I need to make an important sales call. Let's role-play. That's a great idea. What kind of product are you selling? So, I'm a sales person for a logistics company called Cardboard Caravan. My goal is to book a meeting with the logistics manager at Terry's Trousers, who recently submitted an inquiry on our website. I call and you answer the phone. Got it. I'm ready to play the logistics manager at Terry's Trousers. Let's do this. Thank you for calling Terry's Trousers. How may I direct your call? Hi, this is Clara from Cardboard Caravan. I'm calling to follow up on an inquiry you submitted on our website. Could you tell me a little bit about what you're hoping to achieve with a new logistics partner? Absolutely, Clara. We're looking for a logistics partner who can help us streamline our shipping process and reduce costs. We've been experiencing some delays and inefficiencies lately, and we need a reliable solution to ensure our trousers get to our customers on time. I totally understand. We've helped other companies in your position. Would you be open to a brief follow-up meeting to talk about how we could help you specifically? I'm sure that could be arranged. What times are you available for a meeting? How about next week? I can follow up via email and send you a case study. Sure, next week works. Please send the case study. Now that we finished our live conversation, we can ask Gemini for feedback. We'll ask Gemini to provide feedback on my approach. Include strengths, weaknesses, and suggestions for improvement. Huh. Wow. There's some great feedback in here that I can definitely use to practice. I also use this feature to talk through ideas, and then turn those into actionable project proposals. Say I have an out-of-the-box concept for a new product launch. I'll ask Gemini Live to help me flesh out the concept and then synthesize our conversation into an action plan that I can share with my leadership, and with clearly outlined next steps. It's a great way to go from idea to execution. So, the next time you want another perspective or help with ideation, try going live with Gemini.
