Course overview

Lead your Organization in the era of AI with Vision and Strategy

We are in the midst of an unprecedented degree of technology-driven change—a sea of risks and opportunities.

Just 10 years ago, there were clear lines between industry, business, and technology functions within organizations, but recent technological breakthroughs and social shifts are reinventing organizations and markets.

Those who are leading or aspire to lead their organization in the era of AI need strategy and leadership principles built-for-purpose for this new era.

That's where "AI Strategy Fundamentals" comes in.

Over the span of 4 sessions, each with a Q&A, you'll be guided through the frameworks and process of building an AI strategy for your team, organization, or market, with real-world examples.

Here's what you can expect:

• Defining the era of Autonomous Transformation, how it's different than Digital Transformation, and why that matters

• How to build the skill of envisioning the future of your team, market, and organization in the era of AI

• Translating vision into strategy, with practical, visual frameworks

• How to steamroll Pilot Purgatory and stop wasting time and money on use cases

• Why an expertise-based strategy for AI is more effective than a data-driven strategy (and how to do it)

• How leadership has changed with AI, and what to stop and start to build a culture that will thrive in the era of AI

• AI, ML, and adjacent technologies in plain English

• How to end divisions between technology, business, and industry experts

• Developing an ecosystemic strategy for AI to outmaneuver the competition

• Systemic strategy and leveraging the lost art of Synthesis to make your vision (nearly) inevitable

• The importance of Storytelling, with frameworks for turning vision and strategy into purposeful change

This course is designed to be actionable, and will include slide presentations, visual frameworks, live sessions with world-leading management thinkers and FORTUNE 500 leaders, practical worksheets and resources, interactive Q&A, and community networking.

All sessions are recorded, so no matter where you are, no matter what time-zone you're in, you can learn the fundamentals of AI Strategy in the era of AI.
