Executive AI Roadmap Workshop
Give your AI backlog an agreed order of play.
A facilitated working session for executive teams with several AI ideas and no shared priority. Make the calls together, then turn them into a written 90-day roadmap with ownership assigned.
What it is
A working session built around real business choices.
The team brings the ideas and active proposals. Ark gives the room a common way to assess them and facilitates the decisions. The goal is clarity about what happens next, including what should wait.
Who should be in the room
The executive sponsor and the people closest to the work under discussion.
It suits founders and leadership teams who need an agreed direction before more tools are bought or projects are commissioned. The useful tension comes from pairing decision authority with operational detail.
The decision table
Every candidate has to earn its place.
A shared table turns competing opinions into comparable choices. It gives the room a visible record of what was tested, what was decided and where each active priority lands in the roadmap.
| Candidate | What the room tests | Decision | Roadmap record |
|---|---|---|---|
| A revenue opportunity | Is the commercial case clear enough to warrant a focused experiment? | Test now or park it | Accountable owner and first milestone |
| A repeated workflow | Is the process stable enough to prove by hand before anything is built? | Prove by hand or leave alone | Manual test and success measure |
| A proposed tool or vendor | Does it solve the underlying constraint at a sensible cost and risk? | Proceed or stop | Commercial call and next action |
| A team adoption gap | Would people use this in their real work during the next working week? | Enable now or defer | Adoption action and accountable owner |

What you leave with
Decisions your team can carry into Monday.
The discussion is captured as a practical management document, rather than disappearing into notes from the room.
Agreed priorities
The opportunities the team has chosen to pursue, ranked against the same decision criteria.
A 90-day order of play
A written sequence that makes the first move clear and keeps dependent work in the right order.
Owners and first actions
Named accountability for each active priority, with the next practical action captured.
A deliberate parked list
Ideas the team has chosen to defer, with enough context to revisit them without reopening every debate.
Where it fits
Choose the format that matches the decision.
The workshop is the team format. Ark also works one on one and stays involved when a roadmap needs continuing senior judgement.
