EXECUTIVE ADVISORY
Chief AI Officer time, without the hire.
Most organizations do not need another AI vendor. They need one person who has built the thing, will tell them the truth about what is worth doing, and can say plainly when the answer is nothing. That is what this is.
Why there is no booking link
Availability is genuinely limited, and the work only pays off when it is the right fit. So every engagement starts with an application rather than an open calendar. We read each one, and we say no when we would not add enough value to justify the fee.
- Every engagement is by application. We only take work where we can genuinely move the needle.
- Fees for the Strategy Call and Executive Intensive are credited in full toward any engagement started within 90 days.
- Rush turnaround, where available, is charged at 1.5×.
