AI Strategy Alignment
for Leadership Teams

Align your leadership team on a clear AI strategy for 2026 in just two 90-minute sessions

Workshop Outputs

By the end of the workshops, you'll walk away with:

  • A simple AI readiness snapshot of your organization.

  • A prioritized map of where AI can create value for you.

  • A shortlist of 3–5 AI initiatives to start in January 2026.

  • Shared language for better AI conversations going forward.

  • A 90-day roadmap with milestones and success measures.

WHAT THE WORKSHOPS FOCUS ON

Two 90-minute leadership working sessions. No hype deck. No tech deep dive. Just structured conversations and clear decisions.

Session 1: High-Level AI Readiness Check

What aspects of our culture, data, skills, and governance need to evolve to enable AI initiatives that deliver measurable ROI impact in 2026?

  • Identify current strengths, pain points, bottlenecks, and growth needs.

  • Explore how AI can impact each of your top business strategies.

  • Set short-term AI objectives to improve specific business metrics.

Outcome: a clear, shared AI readiness snapshot of your organization and the short-term focus that will deliver measurable ROI impact .

Session 2: AI Opportunity Assessment

What area(s) of our business are best suited for our next AI experiments?

  • Identify business systems where AI can deliver on short-term objectives.

  • Prioritize opportunity areas by value, feasibility, and risk.

  • Shortlist of 3–5 initiatives and a practical 90-day plan.

Outcome: a prioritized opportunity map, initiative shortlist, and a 90-day roadmap for early 2026.

What to expect

  • Format: Live facilitated sessions (virtual or in-person).

  • Duration: Two 90-min sessions, typically within a week.

  • Participants: Core leadership team (6 - 12 participants)

  • Timing: Designed to support Q1+ strategy and budget cycles.

  • Investment: Only $1,450 (introductory rate)

    * No charge if not completely satisfied with your first session

Why this, why now?

  • AI moved from hype to serious use in 2025. 2026 is when the gap widens between organizations with a plan and those still dabbling.

  • Boards, customers, and employees are asking: “What’s our AI strategy?” and they deserve a unified response.

  • Many teams have pilots and tools—but no shared view of where AI should create value next.

  • Without alignment, you risk scattered experiments, duplicated efforts, and missed opportunities.

In 3 hours of leadership time, you can avoid 6–12 months of scattered AI experiments and expensive false starts.

Ready to align your AI strategy for 2026?

If your team is still in “we need to do something with AI” mode, these two 90-minute sessions
might be the most valuable 3 hours you spend before the new year.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this AI technical training?

No. This sprint is designed for leadership decision-making. We focus on where AI can drive value, how ready your organization is, and what to prioritize next—not on hands-on technical build.

Do we need to have AI pilots already in place?

No. Some teams are starting from exploration; others have multiple pilots. We meet you where you are and help you decide what’s next.

Do I need prior AI experience?

No prior AI experience is required. The workshop is designed for leaders at all levels of AI familiarity.

What happens after the sprint?

You’ll have a clear 90-day roadmap and initiative shortlist. If you like our approach to collaborative decision making and want support beyond the sprint, we can discuss follow-on options—but there’s no obligation.

How many people should attend?

Typically 5–10 leaders who can influence strategy, budget, and execution. We can adjust to your context.
