AI Strategy Sprint

One AI plan your executive team agrees on.

Where AI pays first in your business, in what order, and why, in four weeks. For leaders who want direction before committing to delivery.

What it is

Direction before delivery.

The AI Strategy Sprint exists for one situation: the appetite for AI is real, but every executive has a different first step in mind. Four weeks later your leadership team has argued it through to one plan: where AI pays first in your business, in what order, and why.

It ends in decisions, not a deck. The plan names the first engagement, the sequence behind it, and the evidence each step must produce before the next one is funded.

AI Strategy Sprint

Take a beat, build the strategy

Investment: $15,000 fixed fee · Duration: 4 weeks

For the executive team that owns the budget and the workflows.

Choose this when

  • Leadership agrees AI matters but has not aligned on priorities
  • Business functions are competing for investment
  • The organization needs a business roadmap before funding execution
  • Governance and sequencing decisions remain unresolved

Outcome

Where should the company invest first, in what sequence, and what must each step prove before the next is funded? Decided, together.

What you get

A plan you can fund, in the order it pays.

Where AI pays first

A prioritized map of AI opportunity across your workflows and systems, scored by value and readiness.

The sequence

Which starting point fits (operate, modernize, or build), what follows it, and the reasoning your team agreed to.

The evidence gates

What each step must prove before the next one is funded, so the program earns its way forward.

How it runs

Four weeks, week by week.

1

Listen

Interviews with your executives and line leaders; a read of the systems and workflows they run.

2

Map

The opportunity map: where AI pays in your business, scored by value and readiness.

3

Align

The working session where your executive team argues the map into one plan, together.

4

Decide

The readout: the plan, the sequence, and the first engagement scoped and ready to start.

Who you'll work with

People who have carried the budget.

Former Microsoft, AWS, and Accenture leaders alongside hands-on specialists. A senior lead runs the sprint end to end, in the room with your executives. Meet the team →

Is this a slide deck?

No. It ends in decisions your team made in the room: one plan, one sequence, one first engagement.

Do we need our data ready first?

No. Sequencing around what is and is not ready is part of what the plan decides.

We already know where to start. Do we need this?

Then skip it. Start with the Everyday AI Productivity Pilot or the AI Discovery & Assessment; the sprint exists for teams that are not yet aligned.

Who needs to be in the room?

The executives who own the budget and the workflows. Typically 4 to 8 people.

Ready when you are
