Higher ed runs on a million small, repetitive processes—and the people who keep them going. But many of those mind-numbing steps can be automated with the tools we already have, no budget request required. In this session, we’ll explore three case studies from showing how low-code, off-the-shelf tools like DocuSign PowerForms, Smartsheet, and Microsoft Power Automate can tame chaotic workflows, protect staff time, and (mostly) preserve sanity. We’ll focus how these solutions can help you spot automation-ready pain points in your own unit and apply an “Accessible, Useful, Flexible, Realistic” lens to solve them by building your own army of servant robots.
