Why C-suites need a new AI playbook

Most enterprises invest heavily in digital and AI, yet around 95% of AI initiatives never scale beyond pilots, trapped in optics, fragmented workflows, and brittle governance.

Insight to Impact reframes AI from a collection of tools to an emergent class of autonomous collaborators, helping leadership teams design for resilience, not theatre.

The workshop challenges executives to become wisdom producers in an era where knowledge is abundant and cheap but discernment, purpose, and judgment are scarce.

Treat agentic AI as a core design material, not a bolt on.

Design for friction in highvalue workflows instead of low risk proofs of concept.

Align AI deployments with a larger narrative of organisational renewal and venturing.

Designed for transformation leaders

This workshop is crafted for organisations where senior leaders recognise that dashboards, co-pilots, and isolated agents are not enough, and where there is appetite to reimagine the organisation itself in the agentic AI era.

Csuite teams (CEO, COO, CIO/CTO/CDO, CHRO, CFO) and direct reports.

Board members and strategy leaders seeking clarity on AI, risk, and renewal.

Heads of digital, innovation, data/AI, and business unit leaders accountable for transformation outcomes.

Outcomes for your organisation

By the end of Insight to Impact, your leadership team leaves with concrete artefacts, a shared language, and a connected strategy for human–AI transformation.

Build a practical transformation artefact

Leave with a visual portfolio of agenticAI initiatives, explicit knowledge flows, and agreed next steps aligned to XCARLO’s Aperture, Canvass, and Enterprise methodologies.

Map renewal — venturing virtuous cycles

Integrate organisational rejuvenation, strategic renewal, sustained regeneration, and domain redefinition into connected transformation pathways.

Counter cognitive bias in foresight

Surface shorttermism (Amara’s Law), dominant logic, and technologyreadiness biases that distort “now–next–new” opportunity portfolios.

Apply the 3 Lenses™

Use knowledge search, knowledge management, and transactive memory to expand opportunity sensing and organisational intelligence in human–AI configurations.

Master agentic AI as a design material

Understand autonomous, goaldriven AI agents as collaborators that reshape internal renewal and external value creation, rather than tools for isolated automation.

A single day, three integrated modules

The day is structured as a journey from divergent imagination to an integrated, organisationspecific transformation map.

Module

Focus

Core questions

Module

Art of the Possible (3 Lenses™)

Focus

Agentic AI paradigm shift, human–AI collaboration, and the changing economics of knowledge vs wisdom.

Core questions

What becomes possible when AI agents sense, reason, plan, act, and learn alongside humans, and where could that reshape your organisational essence and value creation?

Module

New Horizons (Aperture™)

Focus

Three Horizons foresight, wide vs narrow knowledge search, and cognitive biases in opportunity sensing.

Core questions

How do “now–next–new” initiatives map across horizons, and where are biases and blind spots narrowing your future opportunity space?

Module

Future Now (Canvass™)

Focus

Four domains of corporate entrepreneurship and renewal–venturing loops.

Core questions

How can agentic AI act as both renewal engine and venturing catalyst, and what portfolio of initiatives will move you beyond pilots?

Throughout the day, Csuite teams work with tailored cases to anchor abstract concepts in concrete strategic choices.

Workshop flow at a glance

Insight to Impact is an inperson or virtualfirst, highly facilitated experience, designed to create shared insight and commitment rather than oneoff inspiration.
