The starting point
AI has never been this good. And most leaders have never used it this little.
There is a gap between what AI can already do and what leaders actually do with it every day. That gap isn't technical. It's about leadership.
How do I keep building a competitive advantage when intelligence is no longer exclusively human?
What this talk is not
Not a technical class
Nobody leaves writing code. The focus is mindset and decision-making, not tools.
Not a software pitch
We don't present a product. We show how to lead better with a new ally.
Not about replacing people
It's about empowering leaders and freeing teams for the work that creates value.
What leaders take away
We're not here to give a class. We're here to give an edge.
Judgment
How to spot where AI creates real business value, and where it's just a distraction.
Method
A simple way to talk to AI and trust what it gives back.
Stance
How to unlock adoption across the team, without fear, starting with the leader's example.
Clarity
What doesn't change: context, trust and judgment remain human.
In the end, leaders don't think “I learned about AI”. They think: “I know exactly where to start”.
Content
A practical journey, from diagnosis to the first decision
Every topic comes with real examples and live demos. Cases are tailored to your industry before the event.
- 01
Where we are, without hype or fear
The real state of AI for business leaders: it's no longer a promise, it's only as good as what feeds it, and blind trust is as dangerous as ignoring it.
- 02
From “job description” to “jobs to be done”
Break each role into real tasks: AI handles what is standardized and repetitive while people review; what requires judgment and empathy stays human.
- 03
The 4 levels of AI adoption in companies
From personal optimization to automated workflows and AI-powered products, and how to tell which level your team is at.
- 04
Where AI really moves the business
Rework, waiting, trapped knowledge and stalled decisions. Aim AI at the bottlenecks that matter, not just at polishing emails.
- 05
The 4 i method
Information, Intention, Instruction and Interaction: how to turn a loose request into a conversation that produces reliable answers.
- 06
An AI advisory board for decisions
AI is dangerously good at agreeing with you. A ready-to-use structure that makes it debate your choice through five advisors before tough decisions.
- 07
AI as a teammate, not a tool
What the Harvard and Procter & Gamble study (2025) revealed about people and teams working with AI, and why it changes management.
- 08
Recruiting, confidentiality and compliance
How to assess professionals who think alongside AI, and a simple rule for what can and can't go into an AI tool.

Why Agence
We talk about what we practice
AI as an everyday technology
At Agence, AI is already like electricity and the internet: nobody thanks it for existing, but everyone notices when it stops. We run our own assistant, with our own rules and safeguards, across the operation.
Security is part of the topic
We are ISO 27001 certified. Talking about AI without covering data leaks and governance isn't responsible, so it's part of the content.
Proven in the auditorium
The Executive Talk has been delivered to managers and department heads at one of Chile's largest construction companies, with cases tailored to their projects.
From stage to execution
When the team wants to move from level 1 to automated workflows, Agence stays alongside with consulting, automation and dedicated AI professionals.
