Start with Mindset, Not Models: Before executives can lead AI transformation efforts, they need to reshape their mindset. An ‘AI-first’ mindset unlocks strategic potential that tools alone cannot.
Friction is a Feature: Effective workshops challenge assumptions and spark breakthrough thinking.
Make It Real, or It Doesn’t Stick: Theory fades fast. Executives must see, debate, and experience AI solving real business problems.
From Talk to Test: The shortest path to AI value is experimentation. Ideas are only useful if they can be tested, iterated, and applied.
Tie AI to Business Priorities: No AI project survives without relevance. Start with a clear business problem and align AI use cases with executive-level goals.
Immediate Application is the Benchmark: Apply new skills, frameworks, or thinking in your job the next day.
