AI workshop for management teams and executives

Vlad Tudor runs hands-on AI workshops for management teams and executives in Romania: half a day, a full day or several days, after an orientation visit at your office. In the full-day format, the morning covers how AI works, where it pays off and what the AI Act asks of your company; in the afternoon each manager turns one real process into a one-page brief. He delivered a full-day AI Fluency workshop at Cegeka.

What I hear from management teams.

“Everyone tells me we're late. Nobody tells me for what.”

“I approved the licences. I can't say what we got for them.”

“I don't want a prompt course. I want to know what to decide.”

A new power source, bolted onto old processes.

When factories swapped the steam engine for the electric motor, they kept the central shaft that powered every machine, and for decades almost nothing changed. The gains came when the factory was rebuilt around the work.

AI is at the same point in most companies: a new power source bolted onto old processes. That is a management decision, not a technical one, which is why this workshop is for the people who decide.

The full-day format, as an example.

MorningJudgement
  • How a language model works and why it sounds sure when it is wrong, shown live.
  • Where AI pays off: tasks with clear inputs, a clear result and someone who checks it.
  • Costing it properly: against the hours the work takes today, not against zero.
  • What the AI Act asks now: AI literacy since February 2025, transparency since August 2026, and what can wait.
Lunch
AfternoonOne process each
  • Exercise 1: each manager picks one process from their own department and maps it step by step.
  • Exercise 2: marking which steps a tool could do, which a person must check, and which should stay human.
  • Exercise 3: build, buy or leave it; the same case tried hands-on with Claude or ChatGPT.
  • Round-up: a one-page brief per process, which the team reviews together.

On Monday, managers can:

  • tell a useful AI use case from a demo;
  • ask a vendor the questions that expose a weak offer;
  • give their team a clear rule on what data may go into which tool;
  • bring one costed brief to the next leadership meeting.

    I lead every Sapio AI engagement myself, from the first audit of a company's processes to systems running in production, so the examples come from work that shipped.

Questions that come up.

How much does it cost?

It depends on the format and the size of the group. After a short call you get a written proposal before anything is agreed.

Online or on site?

On site works best, because the hands-on part runs on your own processes around one table. Online delivery is possible on request, discussed case by case.

In Romanian or English?

Either, including mixed teams with materials in the other language.

How many people?

Up to 20. For most companies that is the whole management team in one room, which is the point: the decisions are made together.

Does it cover Article 4 of the AI Act?

It helps. Article 4 asks companies that use AI to take measures to support AI literacy among the people using it on their behalf; managers who understand the tools are part of that, and the agenda and materials remain as a record. The Act asks for effort, not a certificate. Whether your measures are enough is a legal judgement for your lawyer, and I don't give compliance guarantees.

Tell me who would be in the room.

Tell me which decisions your management team is facing on AI. I'll build the workshop around them.
