The AI-augmented manager: How to win back one day a week
An IMD masterclass on moving from AI curiosity to AI advantage
The modern executive is drowning in shadow work, the endless cycle of emails, reports, meetings, and administrative friction that eats up a huge amount of the workday. In this masterclass, we move past the AI hype into the realm of practical benefits. It is a pragmatic intervention designed to transform AI from a speculative concept into a high-performance “Digital Chief of Staff.” From prompt engineering, to managing AI projects, agents, apps, and workflows, this session shows you proven approaches to get the most out of AI at work.
Join Professor Michael Wade, for a hands-on approach leaving you with practical tools to reclaim your time and lead more effectively. Professor Wade is Program Director of Leading Digital and AI Transformation and Digital and AI Accelerator programs, among others.
What you’ll gain from this session:
- You will move beyond simple chat interactions to master executive prompting, ensuring that AI outputs are aligned with your specific objectives and leadership voice.
- You will learn how to architect a personalized AI operating system that automates non-value adding work to become an effective digital Chief of Staff.
- You will learn to use AI as a high-level cognitive partner to stress-test your strategic plans, identify blind spots in your logic, and simulate executive-level counter-arguments before critical decisions.
Following the session, you will have the chance to engage directly with our Program Advisors. They will provide:
- A comprehensive overview of IMD’s AI and digital transformation program portfolio, plus insight into our renowned Orchestrating Winning Performance program (OWP)
- Insight on how our programs can align with your professional aspirations
- Answers to all your questions about our programs and more
