Leadership cohort
Get your leaders fluent in AI, fast

Part of the wider capability journey
This page is one part of Avocado AI's wider capability model. Depending on your size, goals, and stage, we may recommend a mix of leadership, team, and online learning support.
For leaders who need to set direction, build guardrails, and create the conditions for AI capability to actually stick across their team and organisation.
Delivered with Hatch Talent • ChatGPT or Microsoft Copilot • Includes 12 months access to the Online Learning Platform
At a glance
3 × 3-hour sessions, up to 12 leaders
One session per month, giving space for learning to land between each one. In person or virtual.
Practical work between sessions
Leaders apply what they learn to real work between sessions, helping the capability build in context rather than just in the room.
What makes this practical
  • 60% of workshop time is exercises, pair work, and live practice
  • One month between sessions gives leaders time to test ideas in real work
  • Leaders bring their own decisions, documents, and scenarios into the room
  • Plain-English facilitation with space for discussion, challenge, and questions
12 months platform access
Includes 12 months access to our Online Learning Platform for catch-up, templates, weekly support calls, and continued learning.
How the cohort works in practice
01
Workshop 1
Effective prompting, safe use, and policy in practice
Structured prompting, hands-on practice, AI risks, and applying policy to real work.
02
Workshop 2
From prompting to reusable assistants
Advanced prompting, better context, and building assistants your team can safely reuse.
03
Workshop 3
Strategy, data, and leading adoption
Scenario planning, data analysis with AI, team rhythms, AI champions, and graduation share-backs.
Between workshops, leaders apply what they learn to real work and add useful use cases to a shared AI Playbook.
What you walk away with

An operating rhythm with roles, rituals, sharing, and review cadence you can use straight away.

A practical set of checks, guardrails, and a simple approval path for shared assistants.

How it fits
This facilitated cohort works well on its own, and it also complements the wider journey.
It helps create leadership confidence, shared standards, and clearer guardrails, while team cohorts build day-to-day capability and the Online Learning Platform supports reinforcement and wider rollout.
