Claude Cowork in an Hour: Where do I start?

You've heard what Claude Cowork can do. You've maybe even opened it. And then, nothing. Not because it's hard to use, but because "it can do anything" is surprisingly hard to act on when you've got forty things due and no idea which one to hand over first.

This is the session for that moment. We'll run a few tasks from start to finish. You'll see the difference between a prompt that gets you something usable and one that hands the work right back to you. And you'll leave with a simple way to look at your own to-do list and know what goes to Claude Cowork next. By the end of the hour you'll know how to run your first real task and exactly where to go next.

No prerequisites. No setup. Just the answer to the question in the title.

WHO IT'S FOR

Anyone who has access to Claude Cowork and isn't sure what to do with it yet. Individual contributors, team leads, people rolling it out to their department — if you're past "what is this" and stuck on "what now," this is your hour.
