What it is

Any of our formats - masterclass, cohort or the six-week flagship - delivered privately for your team. We tailor the content to your sector and your real work, run it on your schedule, and keep the sponsor in the loop throughout. The outcome is a leadership group with a genuine, shared, hands-on understanding of what today's AI can and can't do.

How it's different

Private cohort

Just your people

Run exclusively for your senior team - candid conversations, your own examples, no outside room.

Your cadence

Fits your calendar

We work around board cycles, travel and time zones across the UK and the Gulf.

Your context

Tailored content

Built around your sector, your tooling and the decisions you're actually trying to make.

Sponsor debriefs

Visibility for the sponsor

Regular debriefs so the executive sponsor can see momentum and outcomes, not just attendance.

How it works

A short scoping conversation

We learn your team, your goals and where AI fluency would move the needle most.

A tailored proposal

We recommend the right format and cadence, with a clear scope and price for your team.

Delivery, your way

We run it - in person or remote, one session or six weeks - with sponsor debriefs along the way.

Questions

Things people ask us

Can you run a programme for our leadership team or board?

Yes. We run private programmes for leadership teams and boards, set to your cadence and your context, with debriefs for the sponsor. It gives the people who set direction a shared, first-hand baseline of what AI can and can't do. Formats range from a single private masterclass to a full multi-week programme.

How do you handle confidential data on a team programme?

Participants' agents run in private environments kept separate from your corporate systems, and nothing is used to train AI models. We agree up front what stays off the agents, and design the exercises so people learn on realistic work without putting sensitive information at risk.

Can the programme be tailored to our sector?

Yes. Our background is banking and financial services, including Islamic banking, and we've run sessions for banks, a building society and finance academies across the UK, UAE, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. The exercises are built around your organisation's real work.

Can you run the masterclass privately for my team?

Yes. We run private sessions for leadership teams and organisations, in person in the Gulf, London and Europe. The content is tailored to your sector and your tools. Get in touch at ewan@beacon58.com or on WhatsApp.

How do I know if my leadership team is behind on AI?

A simple test: ask each of them what they used AI for last week. If the answers are "nothing", "I tried it once" or "my team handles that", the team is making AI decisions without first-hand experience. That's common, and it's fixable in weeks rather than a year.

I've done the masterclass myself. How do I get my team to the same level?

The quickest route is a private session for your team, built around your organisation's real work, followed by a short programme so it sticks. Leaders who've been through it first make the best sponsors, because they know what good looks like. Tell us about your team at ewan@beacon58.com or on WhatsApp and we'll suggest a format.
