How a day runs

Learn the skill. Use it the same day.

The first half teaches a skill or framework. The second half applies it to a decision, plan, or process each leader already owns. Leaders leave with finished work, not notes.

Who it is for

Leaders who carry a piece of the strategy and were handed it without being shown how to think about it. A department that keeps escalating. A new layer of managers. A team that makes decisions without seeing what each one moves.

Every leader

What every leader leaves with

Finished work

A decision, plan, or map for a real problem in their own area.

A method

The framework taught in the workshop, so they can run it again.

The AI prompts

Prompts that run the framework in minutes, and the judgment to spot where the output is wrong.

Four to six hours.

Who it is for: Leaders who run a department, branch, practice, shift, or project and need to decide with the strategy in view.

Is this a fit
First half · Learn

What the customer pays for, which can differ from what the area is measured on. Effective or efficient, and which one the area is for. Work the customer would refuse to pay for. Five Whys, with two rules that stop blame, to find the real problem.

Second half · Use

Each leader brings a real problem from their own area. They name what the customer pays for, find the waste, and find the real problem. Then they write what they will do and how they will know it worked.

Each leader leaves with

A decision for a real problem, with the measure and the date to check it. The frameworks, in order, to use again. The AI prompts that run them.

Preparation

One real problem from the leader’s area, written in a sentence. We send the prompt a week ahead.

Topic 02

The Decision Stool

Four to six hours.

Who it is for: Leaders who make decisions that move the work for other people, and want to see the full effect before they decide.

Is this a fit
First half · Learn

Every decision trades off cost, quality, and speed. Changing one moves the other two. Seeing the full effect is how a complete decision is made.

Second half · Use

Each leader takes a real decision from their work. They name which of the three they are changing. They trace how that change moves the other two. Then they make the complete decision.

Each leader leaves with

A decision traced across cost, quality, and speed. The method to run on the next decision. The AI prompts that run it.

Preparation

One real decision the leader is facing or made recently, written in a sentence. We send the prompt a week ahead.

What it costs

Priced as a base, plus each additional leader

The base includes a set number of leaders. Each additional leader has a price. A short conversation settles the figure.

The grant

Most Georgia companies with more than 50 employees may have up to half of the training portion reimbursed through the Incumbent Worker Training grant. We complete the application with you.

Concerns

Concerns, answered

“We’ve done leadership training.”

That taught people to communicate and manage. This teaches how the business makes money and how to decide, on their own area.

“My leaders can’t be spared.”

It is four to six hours, spent on their own work, and it ends with something built.

“Will one day change anything?”

One day shows where the problem sits and gives each leader finished work. The report says what comes next.
