The executive challenge

The problem this program solves

Your organisation has run generative ai pilots for two years. None has reached production, the pilot budget is now a permanent line item, and the board has started asking what it actually bought. Careers stall on the same failure: brilliant generative ai pilots, no adoption, no measurable value. You leave with the frameworks to commission work on generative ai, interrogate its outputs and govern it with the discipline applied to any other capital allocation.

Context

Why this matters now

Foundation models have collapsed the cost of building capability in generative ai — the binding constraint has moved from technology to executive judgement.
Boards now ask for a generative ai strategy with the seriousness they bring to capital strategy — and most executive teams still answer with vendor slideshows.
The talent your generative ai agenda needs is mobile and international; institutions without a credible strategy hire it last and lose it first.

Capability

What you will be able to do

  • Evaluate where generative ai creates economic value across the organisation — and where it reliably does not.
  • Read generative ai evidence — dashboards, model outputs, vendor claims — and know exactly what to trust.
  • Construct a generative ai roadmap sequenced by value, feasibility and risk.
  • Defend a generative ai investment case before a board that has been disappointed before.

The IPAT Course Standard

The five-day journey

Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.

IPAT Signature Case™

Six Weeks to Prove Generative AI

A newly appointed chief data officer at a pan-African retail bank inherits a generative ai mandate, one budget cycle to show value, and three functions that each claim ownership of the same dataset. The CEO wants a decision improved this quarter — not a strategy deck.

Your decision: Choose the single generative ai initiative worth proving in six weeks, name what gets stopped to fund it, and decide who owns the result.

IPAT Data Lab™

A a pan-African retail bank suspects its generative ai spending is aimed at the wrong customers — and the intuition cannot yet be defended in the boardroom.

Dataset: Synthetic generative ai panel for a pan-African retail bank: the tables, formats and quality gaps your team would find on day one.

Your task: Structure the data, segment and score it, and translate the model into one operating decision about where the money should go.

A generative ai decision memo backed by an analysis you built and can defend.

Data → Analysis → Decision, not Data → Code → Certificate
