Learn to read frontier AI signals and prepare an organization for more than one possible future. Produce a sourced capability scan, a scenario-branched roadmap for multiple evolution paths, and a monitoring system that keeps the organization alert to change, enabling proactive planning rather than reaction.

Redesign work from first principles, assuming current AI capabilities instead of retrofitting AI onto old processes. Using ChatGPT and a simple spreadsheet, build an AI-native workflow blueprint, score tasks for automation-worthiness, and map where human contribution is densest. These are the core moves of designing work that gets the best from people and AI together.

In this project, you'll create a full AI transformation strategy that pulls together the leadership skills this program builds into one executive-ready deliverable. Using ChatGPT to draft and pressure-test your thinking and a spreadsheet or slide template to structure the roadmap, you will produce a transformation strategy a leadership team could act on. This matters because employers want proof you can lead responsible AI adoption end-to-end, not just describe its parts. Who this is for: This project is for you if you are a manager or senior contributor, or you advise executives, and you want a portfolio-ready artifact demonstrating you can set AI direction and lead transformation. You'll get the most out of it if you have professional experience and comfort with AI chat tools.
