AI strategy framework & plan outline

  • 2 days
  • For Executives
  • On site

A two-day program in which your executive team learns the complete method for an AI strategy, from ambition to scale, and applies every step to your own company. You leave with your strategy outlined in nine chapters, a scored list of opportunities and a work plan to complete it.

Is this for you?

Who it is for

Executive teams that want to build their AI strategy with their own people and need a shared method to do so: the CEO and executive team, including the CFO and the executive who will run AI. If you would rather have us build the full strategy with you, see AI strategy & roadmap.

Group size

6 to 12 participants.

Prior knowledge

None required. Recommended: AI Foundations or the Executive AI alignment day.

Core objectives

  1. 01Learn each step of a complete AI strategy, from ambition to scale
  2. 02Learn the methods behind it: scoring ideas on value and feasibility, building value cases, choosing what to build, buy or partner on, and tracking results
  3. 03Learn the essentials of AI governance and organization: decision rights, teams, approvals and risk appetite
  4. 04Apply every step to your own company at outline level, and plan how to complete it
Why it matters

Many executive teams know they need an AI strategy but are unsure what a complete one contains.

Without a shared method, strategies end up as lists of projects without funding logic, ownership or governance.

How it works

BeforeThe online AI Readiness Scan and talks with the CEO and CFO
  1. 01 Ambition and value
  2. 02 Delivery and control
  3. 03 Your plan in outline

The program has two parts. The first covers ambition and value: what AI must achieve, where it changes value in your industry, how to score opportunities and how to build a value case with funding in stages. The second covers delivery and control: technology choices, organization and change, governance, and how to measure results. Each topic combines teaching with work on your own plan. Before the program, each participant takes the online AI Readiness Scan, and we speak with the CEO and CFO.

Deliverables

  • An outline of your AI strategy in nine chapters, each with first content and open questions
  • A scored list of AI opportunities, with the top five
  • A draft one-page ambition
  • A governance starter set: a register format, an approval route and a draft risk appetite
  • A work plan to complete the strategy: who does what, by when
