01 / Why now
AI can produce research, analysis, recommendations and polished communication. The value of senior judgment increasingly lies in defining the question, structuring the problem and deciding what deserves attention.
That means testing assumptions and hypotheses, separating signal from noise and turning facts into implications. It also means checking whether the evidence supports a recommendation, and whether an AI-generated answer is ready to use, needs verification or should be rejected.
As answers become easier to produce, strong reasoning becomes more valuable.
02 / The workshop
Follow one connected executive case from the first question to a decision you can defend. Think individually, work in small groups and get feedback on your reasoning.
Indicative agenda · 09:00–17:30
What are we actually trying to solve?
How can we break the problem into questions we can answer?
What should we investigate first?
So what?
Is this good enough to act on?
Turn the approach into a personal decision toolkit.
Timings are indicative, with lunch and short breaks included.
03 / Who it’s for
You already make decisions that affect other people’s work. This day gives you time to examine how you reach them, especially when the information is incomplete or the stakes are high.
C-suite executives, VPs, partners, business unit leaders, senior directors and senior managers preparing for broader leadership responsibility.

AI can generate an analysis, recommendation or argument in seconds. You still need to assess the question, the reasoning and the assumptions, then decide what to verify before acting. Throughout the day, AI-generated work gives you material to test and challenge.
No coding or technical AI background required. This is not a prompting course.
“Is this good enough to act on?”
04 / Your instructor
I’m a former McKinsey consultant and Harvard MBA. Through Spaik, the AI transformation boutique I founded, I advise senior leaders on strategy and transformation.
I also lecture on AI in business at HEC Paris and Sciences Po. The workshop draws on ways of thinking I developed through strategy consulting, executive work and teaching, adapted to the decisions senior leaders face.
