Every product leader knows the moment. Your exec wants AI. They want it now. They're not sure what it should do, but they're certain it should ship next week. And somewhere between knowing what the right conversation looks like and actually having it, something gets lost.This isn't a knowledge problem. It's a confidence problem - and confidence comes from having the right tools and knowing how to use them under pressure.Here's what most people don't see: the exec pushing hardest for AI is often the most frightened person in the room. They want something - anything! - that looks like action. Understanding that changes everything about how you respond.This workshop puts you into that conversation on purpose. You'll practice both sides, get the reps in a room where it's safe to fail, and leave ready to change the dynamic in your next exec review.Use this consistently, and the way leadership sees you changes - not because you asked for a seat at the table, but because you'll have proved that you already belong there.

Go from off-script to in control — in a single session.

Your exec isn't being difficult. They're terrified.

Six questions that flip the conversation without killing it.

"Not yet" is a complete sentence. Here's how to say it.

Leave every difficult meeting with shared, realistic expectations.

The Lightning Lesson is strongly recommended. We'll do a quick refresh at the start - but we'll spend most of our time in practice.

Connect any AI request back to diagnosis, guiding policy, and coherent action — the three elements of real strategy.

Move from AI hype to coherent strategy

Say no, or not yet, to an AI request in a way that keeps you credible and builds on the relationship.
