Do I need to know how to code?

No. It is designed for CEOs and managers without a deep technical profile. You should be willing to understand key technical concepts such as data, APIs, automations, LLMs, agents, integrations, and evaluation.

What type of case can I work on?

Internal processes, operations, reporting, quotes, proposals, data analysis, commercial follow-up, or repetitive work where you feel friction today.

Does the program include implementation?

It does not include a full implementation. It does include support to structure the case, understand what it technically requires, and move toward a spec, prototype, initial automation, or roadmap.

How much time should I invest each week?

We estimate 4 hours per week across live sessions, material review, work on your case, and async progress.

Can I attend with someone from my team?

No. This program is designed for CEOs and managers. The intent is for decision-makers to build judgment before fully delegating AI adoption.

What if I do not yet know which case to work on?

We will help you identify it. The first part of the program is designed specifically to find opportunities and choose a case that makes sense.

Applied AI Executive Program

Lead AI adoption with judgment, not scattered demos.

A private program for CEOs and managers who need to understand how the technology behind applied AI works before bringing it into their company.

Technical judgment

You do not need to become an engineer. You do need to understand data, APIs, automations, LLMs, agents, integrations, evaluations, and limits.

During the program, you will work on a real case from your company to translate a business need into an initial technical spec and roadmap your team or vendor can execute.

Price

A private program capped at 20 participants.

We review every application to keep the group focused on executive context, technical readiness, and real company cases.

Start: June 8, 2026
Time: 4 hours/week

Who it is for

Built for CEOs and managers who need to understand the technical side of applied AI.

This program is for leaders who already feel the pressure to adopt AI, but want to understand the architecture, data, risks, and technical decisions behind a real case.

You know AI will impact your company, but you are not sure where to start.

You have tried ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, or other tools, but still use them superficially.

You want enough context to lead internal conversations with technical teams, vendors, or functional areas.

You need to identify real use cases without chasing demos that do not solve anything.

You want to build internal capability instead of depending completely on third parties.

You have manual or repetitive processes, but are not sure whether AI, automation, software, or operational changes are the right answer.

How it works

Technical sessions for leaders, applied work, and progress reviews.

Each participant will work on a real case from their company. If you do not have one yet, we will help you identify it and turn it into an initial technical scope.

3 live group sessions to understand technical fundamentals and implementation patterns.

2 individual sessions to review your case, adjust scope, and ground technical decisions.

Async support during the program to unblock progress.

Estimated time investment of 4 hours per week across sessions, review, and applied work.

Stack

The tools we work with day to day.

These are the models, agents, and platforms we use to design, prototype, and ship applied AI use cases alongside our clients.

It is not a closed list. Judgment matters more than the tool — we choose the one that best fits each case.

Claude Code

Terminal coding agent

Codex

OpenAI pair programmer

Claude

Anthropic conversational LLM

Gemini

Google multimodal model

OpenClaw

Local-first open-source agent

Hermes

Program

Three weeks to move from intention to a grounded use case.

The intent is not for you to leave as an engineer. The intent is for you to understand enough technical detail to lead better, ask better questions, and avoid poorly scoped projects.

Week 1

Find opportunities and understand the technology.

Session 1: How to innovate inside your company

How to detect real improvement opportunities and separate interesting ideas from projects that justify a technical solution.

Outcome: first use-case hypotheses and technical constraints to work on during the program.

Session 2: Technical fundamentals every leader needs

Data, APIs, automations, LLMs, agents, integrations, security, evaluations, costs, and limitations.

Outcome: understand what type of solution your case may require.

Week 2

Diagnose, prioritize, and review your case.

Session 3: Consultative thinking to diagnose and prioritize correctly

How to define the problem, narrow scope, identify technical constraints, estimate impact, and decide how to measure whether it worked.

Outcome: a prioritized and better-structured use case.

Final project kickoff: 1:1 session

The first individual session to review your case, adjust scope, and define pending technical decisions.

Outcome: a clear path toward an initial spec or prototype.

Week 3

Async work and check-ins to ground your case.

Final project landing

You will advance with async support and a second individual review on a flow, spec, prototype, initial automation, or technical roadmap.

Outcome: a technical deliverable you can move with your team after the program.

Frequently asked questions

Direct answers about the format, time investment, technical level, and scope of the program.

Not exactly. It includes educational content, but the goal is not to learn tools for the sake of learning tools. The goal is to build executive technical judgment and ground a real AI case inside your company.
