Stephanie Nesler, Senior Enterprise Learning Systems Advisor at Marathon Petroleum, supports trainers across 13 refineries, 12 states, and every US time zone. Getting them all in one room for a class isn't an option. So she built something people wanted to join: a weekly Fearless Friday Challenge on their internal community site. Nobody is assigned to it. 535 people joined anyway.
In this MicrolearningCONF session, she shares why the moment you assign something it stops being fun, the prompts that got trainers experimenting again (Beat Copilot, Delete Half, Things Learners Have Never Said), and how a challenge marked "vetted, safe to try" became the way people finally got comfortable with AI tools.
