What does the AI for Leaders day cover?
The AI for Leaders day is a structured executive workshop that takes a leadership team from general AI awareness to a concrete, agreed position – on what AI means for the business, which use cases to prioritise, and how to govern its use. It is not a lecture. It is a facilitated working session where the outputs belong to your organisation.
ivee has delivered this programme for teams in financial services, professional services, retail, and the public sector. The co-founders are Forbes 30 Under 30 alumni who built ivee’s curriculum from the ground up, which means every session reflects what actually works with senior stakeholders – not what looks good in a proposal.
The day covers four core areas:
AI literacy for leaders – what AI can and cannot do, calibrated for a non-technical executive audience
Strategic use-case identification – a structured process to surface and evaluate AI opportunities specific to your business
Governance and risk framing – how to set acceptable-use boundaries, manage data risk, and build internal policy
Leadership alignment – closing the session with a shared direction the team can act on from the following Monday
The programme is designed as a standalone day, but also serves as the foundation for ivee’s bespoke enterprise AI training if a leadership team wants to extend their organisation’s AI capability beyond the strategy layer.
How is the day structured?
The AI for Leaders day runs as three named sessions across a full day (six hours of facilitated content, plus breaks). It is available in-person at your offices or an offsite venue, or as a condensed virtual format. Participant cap is 15 – large enough to cover key functions, small enough to keep the room genuinely interactive.
Morning session – AI Literacy Foundation (09:00-11:00, 2 hours)
Format: Workshop | In-person or virtual | All participants
The morning session establishes a shared foundation. Participants leave with a calibrated, honest understanding of what AI can and cannot do – removing both the hype and the fear before the strategic work begins. The session covers current AI capability, the business categories where ROI is proven, and the categories where it is still speculative. No prior technical knowledge required.
Midday session – Strategic Use-Case Prioritisation (11:30-13:30, 2 hours)
Format: Facilitated working session | In-person or virtual | All participants
The midday session is where the real strategic work happens. Using ivee’s proprietary use-case prioritisation framework, the leadership team works through their specific business context to surface AI opportunities, evaluate them against effort and impact, and agree a shortlist. Participants do not leave with a generic list – they leave with a prioritised set of use cases their leadership team has debated and aligned on.
Afternoon session – Governance Framing and Leadership Alignment (14:30-16:30, 2 hours)
Format: Workshop and structured discussion | In-person or virtual | All participants
The afternoon session addresses the governance layer – how the organisation will manage AI risk, set acceptable-use policy, and ensure legal and data compliance. It closes with a structured alignment exercise: the leadership team leaves the room with an agreed position on AI direction, not just a list of ideas. The facilitator produces a post-day summary document within five working days.

“We came into the day with five different views on what AI meant for the business. By the afternoon session we had a prioritised shortlist of six use cases and a draft governance position. That clarity would have taken us months in a normal committee process – the facilitated structure forced the alignment we’d been avoiding.”

Who is the AI for Leaders day for?
The AI for Leaders day is built for senior leadership teams who know they need to act on AI but have not yet reached a shared position on what that means for their specific business. It is not an introductory course and it is not aimed at technical teams. It is a strategic working session for decision-makers.
The programme works well for:
C-suite teams (CEO, CFO, COO, CPO) who need a shared AI direction before committing budget or resource
HR and People leaders responsible for AI adoption strategy and workforce planning
Boards or senior leadership teams preparing an AI policy or governance framework
Strategy and transformation leads who have been asked to define the organisation’s AI roadmap
Leadership teams in regulated sectors (financial services, healthcare, legal, public sector) where governance and risk framing is critical
It is not designed for:
Individual contributors or teams without strategic decision-making authority
Technical teams looking for hands-on AI tool training (see ivee’s AI programmes for that)
Organisations that have already completed a formal AI strategy process and simply want execution support
The participant cap of 15 is deliberate. The session requires real debate between stakeholders – if the room is too large, the alignment work does not happen. For organisations with larger leadership teams, a two-cohort model is available.
What outcomes should we expect?
The AI for Leaders day is designed to produce decisions, not just discussion. By end of day, a leadership team will have moved from competing individual views on AI to a single, agreed organisational position – with documented outputs they can act on immediately.
Concrete deliverables from the day:
Prioritised AI use-case shortlist – typically 4-8 use cases ranked by impact and implementation readiness, specific to your organisation
Draft governance and acceptable-use framework – a starting document your legal, compliance, or HR team can develop further
Recommended tool stack – a curated list of AI tools aligned to your identified use cases and risk appetite
Written post-day summary – produced by the ivee facilitator within five working days, covering all decisions and next steps
Longer-term outcomes:
Leadership team aligned on AI direction, reducing the decision paralysis that delays most AI programmes
Internal stakeholder confidence to begin piloting or commissioning AI projects
A governance position that satisfies board and audit requirements before AI tools are deployed at scale
A clear brief for any external AI vendors or internal technical teams responsible for implementation
Organisations that have completed the AI for Leaders day report that it removes months of internal back-and-forth from the AI adoption process. The value is not in the content – it is in the alignment. If your leadership team cannot agree on what AI is for, no amount of tooling will fix that.

How much does the AI for Leaders day cost?
The AI for Leaders day is priced for enterprise engagements – contact ivee for a quote specific to your organisation, team size, and format.

How many participants can attend?
The programme is designed for leadership cohorts of up to 15 participants. This cap keeps sessions genuinely interactive – small enough for real debate between senior stakeholders, large enough to represent the key functions. For larger organisations, a two-cohort format across consecutive days can be arranged.
Is the AI for Leaders day in-person or virtual?
Both formats are available. The in-person full-day (six hours) runs at your offices or an offsite venue and is recommended for maximum alignment. A virtual half-day (four hours across two sessions) is available for distributed teams. Both formats require no prior technical knowledge from participants.
What do participants leave with?
Each participant leaves with a written post-day summary covering: a prioritised AI use-case shortlist, a draft governance and acceptable-use framework, a recommended tool stack aligned to your risk appetite, and individual next steps. The facilitator produces this document within five working days of the session.
How long does the AI for Leaders workshop run?
The standard in-person format is a full day: six hours of facilitated content across three sessions, plus breaks. The virtual format condenses this to four hours. Both are designed for senior leaders with no technical background and require no preparation beyond an optional pre-read pack shared one week in advance.
