An AI briefing for leadership teams.

Most leadership teams are being asked to make AI decisions before they've had a plain, shared read on it. Vendors pitch tools. Staff try things on their own. The board asks what the plan is. A short briefing gives everyone the same starting point before anyone spends money.

What we cover

• What AI can and can't do for a company like yours right now.
• Where it could save your team time.
• Where the risk is.
• The 3 questions your team should be able to answer before it buys anything.

You get a short written summary afterward. There's no software to buy and nothing to sign up for.

Who it's for

Exec teams and boards who want a plain read on AI before they spend on it. If your team already has a ranked list of use cases, a Pilot Build or the Readiness Sprint on the main page may be a better start.

If the room also needs competitive analysis, the Competitive Evidence Pack is a separate offer: competitor evidence from public sources, graded and linked, from $750.

What happens after you book

I email you within one business day to set a date. Tell me who will be in the room and what decisions are coming up, and the session is built around that.

What comes next, if anything

Some teams stop at the briefing. Others want a written plan: the AI Readiness Assessment ($2,500, 1 week) gives a ranked list of use cases and a 90-day plan, and the AI Readiness Sprint ($7,500, 2 weeks) goes deeper, with interviews and a go or no-go on a first pilot. All prices are fixed, with scope confirmed in writing first.
