AI for Managers — Strategic AI Adoption
Strategic AI adoption in the organization for management: roadmap, business case, risk management, and AI Literacy obligations under the AI Act — not tool operation, but decisions about scaling AI across the company.
AI strategy, not a tool demo
Managers don’t need another demo of what ChatGPT can do — they need a decision framework for evaluating which AI initiatives make business sense, what they will really cost, and how to manage rollout risk. From the first hour, the training focuses on these questions, skipping the technical tool demos covered in other catalog entries.
A business case that survives the leadership meeting
Many AI initiatives fail not because of bad technology, but because of an underestimated budget — the costs of data preparation, system integration, and team training rarely make it into the first version of a business case. Participants build a realistic calculation template that accounts for these hidden costs from the start.
The AI Act and AI Literacy as an obligation, not an option
EU regulations place a concrete obligation on organizations using AI to ensure their team has an adequate level of knowledge — regardless of company size. The final module of the training explains these requirements in language non-technical people can understand and shows practical steps to compliance without engaging an outside law firm.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from AI for Business Leaders — Strategy and Applications, AI for Leaders — ChatGPT in Management and Decision-Making, and other ai-for-leaders-* courses in our catalog?
Those courses focus on a leader's use of AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT) in daily work and decision-making. This training focuses on operational AI adoption at the organizational scale — roadmap, business case, risk management, and AI Literacy obligations under the AI Act — that is, decisions about HOW and WHETHER to scale AI in the company, not how to operate a specific tool.
Do I need to understand AI technology to attend this training?
No. The training is designed for non-technical management and focuses on business decisions — prioritizing initiatives, building a business case, managing risk — rather than the technical details of how AI models work.
What is AI Literacy and does it apply to my company?
AI Literacy is an obligation under the EU AI Act that requires organizations using AI systems to ensure their employees have an adequate level of knowledge about how those systems work, their risks, and their limitations. It applies to virtually every company using AI tools, regardless of size. In the training we show concrete, practical steps to meet this obligation.
How do I build a business case for AI adoption that will convince leadership?
The key is combining concrete, measurable business benefits with a realistic calculation of hidden costs — data preparation, integration with existing systems, and team training. In the workshop, participants build a business case template ready to present within their own organization.
