AI for General Management
An intensive training programme designed for business leaders — CEOs, CFOs, CHROs, Heads of Sales, and COOs. Real use cases, measurable outcomes, and lasting AI adoption in your management processes.
Concrete Use Cases by Function
Each module is built around real operational use cases, immediately applicable to your daily leadership work.
Strategic decision-making & board reporting
Real-time competitive intelligence
Use generative AI to synthesize analyst reports, press releases, and market data into a structured competitive brief in minutes — no more 2-day turnarounds from strategy teams.
Board deck narrative generation
Feed quarterly KPIs into an AI model and generate a draft executive narrative aligned with investor expectations. Refine in one pass instead of three rounds of revision.
M&A target screening
Prompt an AI to cross-reference target company profiles against strategic criteria and surface top matches from a longlist — compress weeks of screening into hours.
Finance operations, reporting & forecasting
Automated management reporting
Instruct an AI to transform raw Excel exports into a structured management report with variance analysis, commentary drafts, and chart recommendations — ready for CFO review.
Contract cost extraction
Use AI document analysis to scan supplier contracts and extract payment terms, volume commitments, and penalty clauses into a centralized dashboard — instantly surface hidden liabilities.
Budget narrative & scenario modelling
Describe your assumptions in plain language and let AI translate them into structured P&L projections with bull/base/bear scenarios and a written commentary for the board.
People operations, talent & culture
Job description generation at scale
Input a role brief and have AI generate a compelling, bias-checked job description in seconds — consistent tone, inclusive language, ready to post on LinkedIn and your careers page.
Performance review calibration
Upload anonymized review data and have AI flag outliers, identify patterns across teams, and generate calibration talking points for HR business partners before review committees.
Employee engagement report synthesis
Feed open-ended survey responses into an AI to extract themes, sentiment trends, and priority action areas — with a draft action plan segmented by department.
Sales enablement, pipeline & client intelligence
Hyper-personalised outreach at scale
Brief an AI on a prospect's recent news, sector challenges, and your value proposition — get a tailored outreach email and LinkedIn message in 60 seconds, at the pace of your full pipeline.
Win/loss analysis from CRM data
Extract CRM notes and deal histories, prompt AI to identify common patterns in won vs. lost deals, and generate a structured playbook for the sales team.
Proposal and pitch deck acceleration
Feed a client brief and previous winning proposals into AI to generate a tailored proposal outline and executive summary — let the team focus on differentiation, not formatting.
Operations, processes & performance management
Process mapping and optimization
Describe an existing operational workflow in natural language and ask AI to identify bottlenecks, suggest process improvements, and produce a redesigned RACI matrix.
Vendor and supplier assessment
Use AI to synthesize RFP responses from multiple vendors against a weighted criteria matrix — producing a ranked scorecard with pros/cons commentary ready for steering committee.
Operational reporting automation
Connect AI to your operational dashboards and generate weekly performance summaries with narrative commentary, exception flags, and recommended actions.
