AI Workshop for Leaders Start Learning

AI Training That Equips Leaders to Make the Right Decisions

In-person strategic sessions for CEOs, marketing and sales leaders running £5m to £500m businesses. Run by practitioners with two years of building AI into real companies, so you leave knowing where to invest, where to wait, and what to do first.

Why We Built These Workshops

There is no shortage of AI content, but very little of it is written to equip leaders with the knowledge they need. Neither generic trend and future gazing blogs or technical analysis will equip leaders with the knowledge to answer the questions senior leaders are being asked in board meetings and exec meetings right now.

The leaders making confident, knowledge-based AI decisions over the next twelve months will pull ahead commercially. The ones who don’t have the foundations get sold the wrong tools, sign off on the wrong projects, or wait too long to engage will spend far longer recovering than they would have spent attending a workshop to get the right knowledge.

Our workshops exist because the leadership teams we work with told us our knowledge was so valuable they wanted to expose more of their leadership to it. We have taken the knowledge transfer we run inside paid engagements and distilled it into in-person sessions that give you the same focused strategic foundations, fast.

The Combined Marketing & Sales Day

Many leaders responsible for both functions, or pairs of leaders attending together, take the combined Marketing and Sales day. Same date, same venue, both half-days back to back with lunch included. £500 + VAT for the day, a £100 saving on booking the two half-days separately.

Run By People Who Build AI In Businesses with Real Experience

Most AI training is built by educators with no real AI experience but ours is built by the team that designs, builds and manages AI inside real companies tackling real problems within real business constraints. From £5m turnover firms to £1bn+ groups, across marketing, sales, service, ops and customer success.

What That Means On The Day

You are in a room with practitioners who have spent the last two years designing, building and shipping AI inside real businesses, with results to point to. The knowledge is current, examples are real, the thinking is honest, and questions get answered properly because the answers come from work that’s happening. You learn from people who can show you exactly what has worked and why.

What You Will Not Sit Through

Surface-level AI 101 content, tool demos for the sake of them, or theoretical roadmaps that fall apart on Monday morning. The day is built to leave you with a working point of view, not a tools checklist.

What You Leave With

Past attendees consistently tell us the day pays for itself within weeks, often through a single decision they would have made differently the week before.

After attending, you will have:

A clear view of where AI is delivering real value across marketing, sales and service inside businesses like yours, versus where teams are burning budget for no return

The ability to spot the highest-impact, lowest-effort use cases in your own business and sequence them sensibly

A position on AI that holds up at board level, with credible reasoning rather than borrowed talking points

A practical understanding of what governance, data quality and process readiness actually require, in terms your team can act on

Confidence in leading the human side of AI adoption, including change, capability building and the conversations that matter

A concrete next step you can put in motion that week, with clarity on who needs to be involved and what good looks like

What Past Attendees Say

Senior leaders from healthcare, professional services, manufacturing and B2B SaaS, in their own words.

''Tim and Chris’s ability to make complex concepts accessible and actionable was impressive, and the day left me feeling inspired and equipped to embrace AI in a meaningful way. I would highly recommend their training to anyone looking to harness AI effectively rather than being overwhelmed by all the promises and expectations AI carries.''


Group Marketing Director

B2B SaaS

''A day well spent. It struck a great balance between presentations and hands-on exercises, ensuring the content was practical rather than just theoretical. Chris and Tim were engaging speakers who clearly know their subject matter. The consensus at the end was that everyone had learnt a lot and was keen to go away and put it into practice.'' 


Marketing Manager

Professional Services

''The training was stimulating, interesting and it helped me realise how little I understood about AI. The speakers were passionate and the day was a valuable use of my time. I went back to the business with a much clearer view of what to do next.''

Want To Run This for Your Own Leadership Team?

For larger leadership teams, or businesses wanting full alignment across multiple senior people in one session, we run private workshops at your office or a venue of your choice. Same facilitators, same content, with examples and discussion tailored to your business and the decisions you are working through right now.

In-house sessions work well from around six attendees upwards.

Common Questions

What to expect - Is this a workshop or a training course?

The day moves from information presentation into hands-on exercises, so you properly grasp the core concepts leaders need, and then into round table discussion, which is why the room is set up boardroom style. You'll be experiencing and learning alongside other leaders working through the same AI decisions, and that peer element is a big part of the value.

Past participants have said they've been impressed by how much knowledge they absorbed in a single day, and by how much they could take back and use afterwards.

Who is the workshop designed for?

CEOs, MDs, C-suite, sales directors, CMOs and senior commercial leaders running businesses between £5m and £100m revenue. People who own outcomes and have AI investment decisions to make. The day is intentionally non-technical, so it works for revenue leaders rather than developers or data scientists.

What is the difference between the three workshops?

The AI Workshop for Leaders is a full day covering the strategic picture across the whole business. The half-day Marketing and half-day Sales courses go deeper on each function. Many leaders attend the combined full day, or send their marketing and sales heads together so the two functions leave aligned on the same operating model.

Can you run a private workshop for our team?

Yes. We run custom workshops for individual companies, typically from six attendees upwards. Same facilitators, same content, with examples and discussion tailored to your business. Book a call with Tim to discuss your needs.

Is there a certification at the end?

No. These are senior leadership sessions, not qualifications. The value sits in what you can do afterwards in your business, which is why most attendees describe the cost being recovered in the weeks following the day rather than on the day itself.

What if none of the dates work for me?

Let us know and we will keep you posted as new dates are added. If you are bringing a team across anyway, a custom workshop run just for your business is often the easier option, with the same facilitators and content tailored to your situation. Get in touch and we will talk you through how it works.

What is included in the price?

For the full Leaders Day, that is a small group of senior peers, both facilitators in the room, all materials, lunch and refreshments at the venue, and follow-up resources after the day.

For the half-day courses, the same applies for the relevant session, with lunch included for anyone attending both the morning and afternoon.

Do you offer group rates?

Yes, for groups of three or more from the same business. Bringing more than one senior leader from your team makes implementation back at the business significantly easier, which is why we encourage it. Get in touch for group rates.
