1) Who is this workshop for?
Executive teams (15–20 leaders) responsible for people strategy and operating model change—e.g., CEOs, CHROs, COOs, CIOs/CTOs, and VPs of HR, Strategy, Operations, and Transformation—who need a clear plan for workforce readiness in the age of AI.
2) What outcomes will we leave with?
A shared vision for AI-enabled work, a skills and roles blueprint (reskill/upskill/hire/partner), redesigned AI-plus-human workflows, change-leadership plan, governance guardrails (ethics, policy, compliance), and a 30-60-90 day execution roadmap with owners and KPIs.
3) Is this a technical program? Do participants need AI expertise?
No technical background is required. This workshop focuses on talent, org design, and change management decisions; we translate AI capabilities into practical implications for jobs, skills, policies, and culture.
4) How is the workshop customized to our organization?
Pre-work captures your strategy, critical roles, and pain points. We tailor sector-specific cases, draft role/skill taxonomies relevant to your context, and align recommendations to your risk posture, labor model, and existing HR tech stack. The workshop can cascade for different divisions, locations, or teams as needed.
5) How is it delivered and where?
Ideally this is a one- or two-day, highly facilitated working session for 15–20 leaders, held on campus at Caltech or at your location. Options include pre-reads, an executive briefing webinar, or an added half-day to deepen role maps, policy updates, or change plans.
6) How does this differ from the Senior Leaders Lab on AI Strategy?
Reinventing Work centers on workforce and operating model decisions—skills, roles, policies, and change. The AI-Driven Strategy: Senior Leaders Lab focuses on technology strategy—use-case portfolio, platforms, governance, and investment roadmap.
7) What tangible artifacts do we receive?
A leadership-ready packet: workforce capability map, priority roles with skill deltas, AI-plus-human workflow sketches, policy/governance checklist, and a 30-60-90 plan (initiatives, owners, milestones, KPIs).
8) Can Caltech faculty or guest experts participate?
Yes—on request we can include Caltech faculty for sessions on AI’s impact on work and organization design, invite industry speakers, and arrange campus or lab visits to contextualize trends and research.
9) Can we discuss sensitive org issues under NDA?
Absolutely. We don’t require proprietary data, but we can execute an NDA and structure sessions to protect confidentiality while still producing decision-ready outputs.
