Two clients per cohort · In person, Prague

Executive AI Program

Make what you say about AI true.

You build one AI pilot from your own agenda, present it as yours, and defend it unscripted. The room stops asking whether you understand AI and starts asking you. 12 weeks, in person, Prague. Two clients per cohort, because every session is run by the founder personally.

Not for

  • Leaders happy to delegate AI entirely.
  • Collectors of certificates.

Who it is for

  • Senior executives and board members who talk about AI publicly and want to back it up personally.
  • Leaders who can bring half a day a week and one real problem from their own agenda.

The program

4 phases across 12 weeks. In person, Prague.

  1. The diagnostic block.

    Weeks 1 to 4. You build working AI workflows on your actual workflows, with Marian, in the room, while the pilot gets scoped. Week 4 is the Scope Gate: a working workflow plus a pilot scope you would sign, or you stop and pay for the diagnostic block alone.

  2. The build.

    Weeks 5 to 8. The concierge expert team builds the pilot between sessions. Your weekly session stays hands-on and stays on your workflows. You make the calls the pilot needs; the team turns them into a working pilot before you meet again.

  3. Hardening and the message.

    Weeks 9 to 11. The pilot gets hardened against edge cases and the follow-up questions a board or a journalist will ask. The communication gets drafted on what you did: town hall, internal memo, board note, in your words.

  4. You present.

    Week 12. You present the pilot as yours, and defend it unscripted, since you made every decision inside it. Then the handover: your team gets the pilot, documented, and takes it from there.

Engaged audience during a Q&A at an Engineering Leaders meetup

From where you are, to where you walk out.

Before

Nobody at your level has time to become a prompt engineer, and courses teach you other people’s examples.

After

You build one AI pilot from your own agenda, with a concierge expert team behind you between sessions.

Before

Asking your own team for a tutorial changes how the room reads you.

After

You present the pilot as yours, and defend it unscripted when the questions come.

Before

You told the whole company AI is the priority. Using it on your own agenda is a different game.

After

You become the one the room turns to on AI, because you did the work, not the slide.

Before

AI stays a delegated topic, briefed by someone else before every board update.

After

Town hall and internal memo drafted with you, in your words, around the pilot you built.

What you walk out able to do.

  • One AI pilot, from your own agenda: a problem you already own, scoped by week 4, built between sessions, presented by you as yours.
  • Defend it unscripted: the follow-up question in the board meeting or the town hall, answered from what you did, not a brief.
  • Communication built on what you did: town hall and internal memo drafted with you, in your words.
  • AI in your daily workflow by week 4: a working workflow on your real agenda before the pilot even starts.

Format

Format and price.

  • One half-day session a week, in person, Prague. About 5 hours a week including async. Marian runs every session personally.
  • Between sessions, a concierge expert team builds, so the pilot moves without eating your calendar. Vojta Tůma keeps it connected to the P&L; a third expert, matched to your pilot’s domain, joins in session one.
  • Two modes, you pick: sanctioned-stack (inside your IT and compliance rules) or sandbox (frontier tools on non-sensitive material, so nothing sensitive leaves the room).
  • Discretion by design: nothing about the engagement exists publicly unless you activate public mode. Any session you rate under 7 out of 10 is free.

Tier 1 · Founding

1,140,000 CZK / quarter

Three invoices of 380,000 CZK. Cohort 1, two seats. Founding terms lock in at first renewal, and you can nominate one peer for the next cohort.

Stop at the week-4 Scope Gate and you pay the first invoice alone. The other two are never issued.

Tier 2 · Standard

1,200,000 CZK / quarter

Three invoices of 400,000 CZK. Cohort 2 onwards. The identical program: same founder, same concierge build, same guarantees.

Stop at the week-4 Scope Gate and you pay the first invoice alone.

Tier 3 · Board package

4,800,000 CZK / quarter

Four executives, one company, one master NDA. The format is co-designed with you before the contract; the Scope Gate applies, fixed in that contract.

What nobody else offers

The parts a competitor cannot copy in a quarter.

01

Founder-led is the cap.

Two clients per cohort, because Marian runs every session himself. You get the founder every week, not a rotating facilitator.

02

Built, not taught.

You end with a working pilot from your own agenda, not a certificate and a strategy slide.

03

Guarantees with teeth.

Any session you rate under 7 out of 10 is free. At week 4: a working workflow and a pilot scope you would sign, or you stop and pay for the diagnostic block alone.

04

Discretion by design.

Nothing about the engagement exists publicly unless you switch on public mode. Who knows inside the company is your call too.

“So that what you say about AI is true.”

Proof, honestly labeled

What we can stand behind today.

  • Run by the founder of the 3,300+ member Engineering Leaders community, 3,611 mentoring sessions with engineering leaders since 2019.
  • C-level AI programs already run in Czech banking.
  • Vojta Tůma, co-founder, keeps every pilot connected to the P&L, not the demo.

Questions

The things buyers actually ask.

How do I learn AI as an executive without my team knowing?

That is what the discretion guarantee is for. Nothing about the engagement exists publicly unless you activate public mode. Sessions run 1:1 in Prague, and you decide who inside the company knows, and when. Tell the team when the pilot works, not before.

Is there an individual AI program for a CEO, not a company-wide course?

Yes. This is 1:1 by design: 12 weeks, 12 in-person sessions, built around your agenda rather than a curriculum. The cohort is capped at two clients because Marian runs every session personally.

Is there a discreet AI mentor for top management in Prague?

Yes, and in person. 12 weekly sessions in Prague, half a day a week of your time, discretion guaranteed. The intro call is 30 minutes and private too.

How do I use AI safely on sensitive company matters?

Two modes, you pick. Sanctioned-stack: we work inside your IT and compliance rules, on tools your company already approved. Sandbox: frontier tools on realistic but non-sensitive material, so nothing sensitive leaves the room.

Who runs a 1:1 AI program built on my own agenda?

Marian Kamenistak runs every session personally: founder of the 3,300+ member Engineering Leaders community, 3,611 mentoring sessions, C-level AI programs in Czech banking. Between sessions, a concierge expert team builds your pilot with you. Pricing is published on this page; the intro call is where you check the fit.

Can my company pay it?

Yes, and it usually does. Standard supplier invoicing to the company, three invoices per quarter, prices excluding VAT. The Board package runs under one master NDA with one counterparty.

What if I stop at week 4?

Then the Scope Gate did its job. You pay the first invoice alone, the remaining two are never issued. No negotiation, no partial credits.

Why is this more expensive than an executive coach?

A coach sells conversation. Here, between your sessions, a concierge expert team is building your pilot. You pay for a founder-run session every week plus a build team behind it, and the output is a working pilot you present and defend unscripted.
