Live · Chief AI Officer Program
Leading Today's AI in the Enterprise
What is actually working inside large organizations right now, what is not, and where the leverage is for the people accountable for it.
Executive programs for senior leaders
Taught by the people building the field.
For executives who need to understand what their own teams are building, and for the people moving into those seats next. Live programs in cohorts of about thirty, taught by practitioners working at the front of the field right now.

Why this is different
Access is the product.
Content has never been cheaper, and AI has made it cheaper still. What is scarce now is the conversation: real time with someone who has done this, where you ask your own questions and get a straight answer about your own organization.
The person who built it teaches it
No facilitator. No pre-recorded lecture with a discussion group bolted on. The people who defined this field run the session themselves, and stay for the questions.
Small cohorts
Up to thirty seats, closer to a round table than a lecture hall. Enough time to work on your own situation, enough access to put your questions directly to the faculty, and a peer group you will learn from as much as the curriculum.
An action plan for your own organization
The point of the program is implementation, not theory. The faculty work through your plan with you as the program runs, so what you take away is built around your organization and ready to act on. You leave with the plan, not just a certificate.
And you can build it yourself
You build a working prototype with your own hands, using AI tools, with no engineering background needed. Understanding what your teams are building is one thing. Having built something yourself is another.
