Workshops and courses on AI, growth and leadership for the teams that run large companies, taught by people who have done the job. Start with a morning, move up to the hackathon, then pick a track.
Start with a morning with Claude
Half a day, hands on, for any business leader who wants to understand AI and agents properly. Low risk, fast result, and the natural first step before the hackathon.
Three hours with Claude, Anthropic's AI, and two people who have run technology and commercial functions inside FTSE companies. You set it up properly, build your own agent, put it to work on a real piece of your own job and leave knowing what AI can do for your business, what it cannot, and what to do next.
No slides and no theory. Open to anyone, on your own or with your team, in London or online.
Founder of The Executive Summary and chair of the City CIO Club. Former commercial transformation director at a FTSE technology business and before that a Financial Times journalist. Runs the growth and customer side of the morning. Holds the Claude Code partner badge in Anthropic's Claude Partner Network.
President of the City CIO Club and a serial chief information officer who has led technology and transformation at Nordea and Sohar Bank. Co-hosts the AI Fluency for Leaders cohort with Dan and runs the build side of the morning.
Both are practitioners rather than trainers. Between them, banking, commercial and technology leadership at FTSE scale.
Built for your next away day.
Is your board ready for AI? The hackathon is a one-day sprint that gets boards and leadership teams fluent in AI and clear on the decisions they need to make. Your team leaves with its own AI agents, a shared view of what to do with AI and a set of decisions scored against the AI risk register. Chaired by Dan Ilett and delivered by a bench of CIOs and AI practitioners from The Executive Summary and the City CIO Club.
The day runs as six rounds. Each one ends in something your team has built, decided or scored, and every idea is tested against safety, productivity and value.
Every member of the team builds one and works with it for the rest of the day.
Take it to market using AI, from idea to first customer, before lunch.
From the people who run it inside large companies, and what it means for yours.
Department by department, the ones that return the investment first.
What your company will sell, to whom and why, once AI is in the product.
The AI Strategy Triangle puts each one against safety, productivity and value, and the team decides.
Everything else we teach, under the three headings The Executive Summary is written to. The hackathon above sits in the AI track.
One-day sprints for executive teams, multi-week cohorts for leadership groups, and toolkits your team keeps. Ask about dates.
