Why leaders trust this workshop?

 

Our facilitators bring their direct experience of education, research and co-learning from:

  • leading universities (Harvard, Cambridge, ANU and King's College London)

  • advising Prime Ministers, Ministers and CEOs in Australia and overseas

  • design and delivery of executive education in Australia and overseas

  • their unique research perspectives and original peer-reviewed research — not repurposed vendor frameworks

Why this workshop now?

No government has yet built the capacity to assess AI harms in real time across labour, health, democracy and security. As AI adoption accelerates, leaders face fragmented oversight, opaque vendor practices, workforce unpreparedness and weak international coordination. This workshop gives participants a structured way to think about that crisis and respond to it with stronger policy judgment.​

 

​Here is a sample of our teaching materials: Closing the Cyber Workforce Planning Gap for AI in Australia.
