How an AI Seminar Helped Leaders Seize Its Opportunities

Artificial intelligence is now an essential driver of transformation for businesses. However, many executives struggle to adopt AI due to a lack of understanding of key concepts and industry-specific applications. A well-structured awareness seminar can equip leaders with the knowledge needed to make informed AI-related decisions.

Project Context

Our client, a major insurance brokerage group, aimed to:

• Demystify AI: Explain fundamental concepts without technical jargon.
• Present concrete use cases: Show how AI can be applied to their industry.
• Align executives on a common vision: Build a roadmap for the gradual integration of AI.

Strat37 designed and led an interactive seminar structured around practical workshops and strategic discussions.

Challenges of Raising AI Awareness Among Executives

Educating executives about AI presents several challenges:

1. Overcoming AI misconceptions: Many still perceive AI as a complex and inaccessible technology.
2. Making concepts accessible: Avoid excessive technicality while maintaining precision on key issues.
3. Providing practical applications: Tailor use cases to industry-specific needs.

By structuring the training in an interactive and applied manner, we effectively addressed these challenges.

3. Interactive Workshops

Hands-on sessions to explore internal AI applications and assess their potential impact.

4. AI Adoption Roadmap

The seminar delivered significant outcomes:

• 60 executives trained: A shared understanding of AI challenges and opportunities.
• Identification of concrete opportunities: Several AI initiatives considered by the end of the training.
