Course objectives

This programme provides you:

  • A confident, leader-level grasp of AI - enough to ask the right questions and challenge the answers, without needing a technical background.
  • The ability to connect AI to strategy, turning it from a set of tools into a source of competitive advantage.
  • A practical, organisation-wide view of where AI creates value - across customer experience, operations, and enabling functions such as Finance, IT, and HR.
  • The judgment to lead AI responsibly, balancing opportunity with bias, fairness, and governance risks.
  • A concrete output you can use: your own AI strategy and roadmap, developed through the Capstone project.

By the end of the programme you will be able to:

  • Cut through the hype - judge what AI can and can't do and evaluate its outputs critically.
  • Lead decisions with AI, managing bias and governance with sound judgment.
  • Apply AI across the customer journey, from acquisition to loyalty.
  • Drive AI across operations and enabling functions (HR, IT, Finance, and more).
  • Set an AI strategy, spot high-value opportunities, and embed Responsible AI.
  • Build a staged roadmap to grow AI capability in your organisation.
