Instructions

2. Create a step-by-step facilitator guide with timing for each segment (introduction, demo, hands-on exercise, Q&A).
3. Include a list of common questions and best practices related to the topic.
4. For workshops, provide a list of tools and techniques (e.g., breakout rooms, polls, shared documents) to enhance engagement, especially for remote teams.

Output format A markdown document with a clear agenda table, detailed facilitator notes for each segment, and appendices for common questions and tools. Tone is instructional and supportive. Guardrails

• Avoid overloading the session with too much content; respect the duration.
