Turn AI from a buzzword into a board-level operating decision.
An executive program for the C-suite, board and senior leaders. You leave with a shared AI ambition, the governance to pursue it safely, and a funded Stage-1 blueprint your organization can act on.
Most organizations do not lack enthusiasm for AI. They lack the decisions that turn it into action.
Four gaps keep leadership teams stuck, and each is a decision only leadership can make.
Everyone has a different idea of what AI is for
Each function pursues its own version of AI. Without one agreed direction, effort scatters and the parts never add up to a strategy.
No one holds the decision rights
When accountability for AI sits nowhere in particular, initiatives stall in the gaps between IT, the business and the board.
Fear of getting it wrong
The EU AI Act and rising risk expectations make leaders hesitant to commit, so promising ideas wait for a green light that never comes.
Budget with nothing to show the board
Money flows to tools and pilots with no roadmap behind them, and the results are hard to defend when the next board meeting arrives.
Four decisions, made and owned by your leadership team.
The program is built around tangible outputs, not theory. You leave with the following in hand.
A shared AI ambition and strategy
One agreed direction and set of priorities, understood and backed across the whole leadership team.
Governance and EU AI Act readiness
The controls, accountabilities and approvals that let you move on AI quickly and safely.
Operating model and decision rights
Clarity on who decides, who builds, and how AI is funded and run across the organization.
A funded Stage-1 blueprint
A concrete, costed plan the organization can act on immediately, with the first priorities and the sequence to follow already set.
Three moves, from diagnosis to a funded plan.
Designed to fit around senior schedules: roughly two workshops and a few working sessions over four to eight weeks, with a decision at every step.
Diagnose
An AI-Maturity diagnostic establishes where you stand and where the value is.
Decide
Leadership agrees ambition, governance, operating model and decision rights.
Blueprint
The decisions become a funded Stage-1 plan, ready to execute.
Led by practitioners who teach AI transformation at ETH and Babson.
The program is delivered by senior AI practitioners who teach AI transformation to executives and MBA students at ETH Zürich and Babson College in Boston. You learn from people who have built AI teams and led large-scale transformations, and who teach this material at the institutions that help set the standard.
Our hands-on programs have delivered measurable, documented results across many client engagements. The Leadership Program brings that same practitioner rigor to the decisions that happen above the build.
The top half of one connected method.
The Leadership Program sets direction and controls. The AI Acceleration Program proves what works on the ground. Run together, each makes the other stronger. Run on its own, this program still delivers a funded plan you can act on.
