How do you generate profitable growth in the age of AI?
Generative AI has moved from curiosity to core capability. Agentic AI and other recent breakthroughs are further accelerating this shift. The question is no longer if AI will transform your business – but where, how fast, and how you as a business leader operating in the B2B landscape should navigate this transformation.
Workshop format
- In-person and interactive
- 6–10 participants to maximize discussion and peer learning
Who should attend?
B2B business executives who seek to:
- Use AI to power growth, competitiveness and profitability – not just efficiency
- Find practical ways to govern and lead to generate profitable growth from data and AI
- Understand how to set direction, allocate capital and govern AI initiatives at enterprise scale
Whether you are at the beginning of your AI journey or already advanced, this session will deepen your understanding and clarify the actions that top management needs to take
Through the day you will get:
- Clarity on how to create enterprise value from AI
- Understanding of your governance role – what to own, delegate, and oversee
- Strategy framework for AI-driven growth across technology, skills and culture
- Clarity on how to embed AI risks and resilience into board decisions and policies
- A learning toolkit with pre-event readings, materials, and a custom AI-based “growth advisor”

“Avaus AI leadership workshop gave us a concrete understanding of how data and AI can drive real profitability, not just efficiency. The combination of strategic insight and hands-on frameworks made it directly relevant for investment leaders like us”
- Fredrik Bergegård, EVP, Storskogen Group
"AI will bring significant transformation, and executive management teams need to establish a structured approach to handle it. This workshop gave me as a board member an understanding about the right questions to ask, and a clear picture of what a solid approach looks like. It was very valuable to exchange approaches, challenges and questions among the other participants, as the discussions were lively throughout the day"
- Eivor Andersson, Board Professional
"AI is talked about everywhere, but rare are the moments where you genuinely discuss the full picture with a true peer group: how AI impacts business, thinking, what kind of transformative force it is, and how leadership should systematically approach it. The confidential atmosphere, hand-picked colleagues, and real cases, along with the frameworks provided to support our thinking, were all top-notch. An extremely successful experience overall."
- Sanna Myller, Marketing Manager at LähiTapiola
"A great day to get inspired by other companies on a similar transformation journey and to share my own experiences. Avaus approaches AI from a P&L perspective, placing the operating model and change management at the core."
