"The Executive AI Workshop delivered on peer learning, opportunity identification, and practical insight into what’s possible with AI — especially around the build-vs-buy decision. A highlight for me was bringing a colleague to learn alongside other executives, with access to guest speakers and consultants we don’t typically encounter in our day-to-day. "
