Curriculum
Bring a challenge. Build your solution.
AI in Action is not built around canned examples. You bring a real business challenge. We help you work through it using an AI readiness lens, a human-in-the-loop operating model, and practical support from AI-enabled builders.
Day at a Glance
A workshop, not another AI lecture.
There are two distinct sections. A thought-provoking keynote in the morning, and a hands-on, experiential workshop in the afternoon — moving from why to how.
Executive Briefing
The AI Leadership Gap
We'll unpack why ROI is not showing up, where companies confuse activity with progress, and what CEOs need to understand to effectively lead their organization in the future.
Hands-on Workshop
Bring one real challenge into the room.
Work through a business challenge and begin translating it into an AI-ready workflow and build a prototype. This experience is critical for understanding how to lead a company powered by it.
No canned use cases. No generic playbook.
You do not need to arrive with a technical idea.
You need to arrive with a real business challenge.
A workflow that is too manual. A process that depends too heavily on one person. A decision that takes too long. A team buried in repetitive work. A place where growth is creating more complexity than your current model can absorb it.
We'll help you pressure-test it.
The goal is not to show you what AI can do in theory. The goal is to help you see where AI can create leverage in the business you actually run.
The Framework
We turn business friction into an AI-ready workflow.
The better question is not “What can AI do?” It is “Where is work breaking down?”
01
Outcome
What business result are we trying to improve?
02
Workflow
Where is the work actually happening today?
03
Friction
Where are the delays, handoffs, manual steps, or judgment bottlenecks?
04
Data
What information does AI need to produce useful output?
05
Human Judgment
Where should people approve, challenge, interpret, or decide?
06
Build Path
What should be automated, accelerated, delegated, or redesigned?
This is how AI moves from random experimentation to operating leverage.
What you'll leave with
You will not leave with a generic AI playbook.
You will leave with a clearer view of what needs to change, where to start, and what kind of talent it may take to make the work real.
AI Readiness Lens
A practical way to evaluate where your company is ready and where it is not.
One Mapped Challenge
A real workflow or business challenge mapped through the workshop framework.
Prototype or Build Brief
Depending on the challenge, a prototype direction, workflow sketch, or build-ready brief.
HITL Clarity
A clearer understanding of where AI should act and where people should decide.
90-Day Direction
A practical next-step view for moving from experimentation to execution.
Talent Lens
A better understanding of what AI-enabled talent could do inside your business.
You will not leave with a theory. You will leave with a starting point.
The Speakers
Built from three perspectives. Delivered by people doing the work.
Most AI workshops come from one angle. A technologist explains tools. A vendor explains software. A consultant explains trends.
AI in Action is different because the curriculum was shaped by three perspectives: technology, leadership research, and real-world scaling experience.
