The AI-Powered Manager: 10x Your Team's Performance [Starts July 14th]
Leadership IQ
4-Week Online Certificate Program
This cohort begins on July 14, and because it's running during the summer months, participants have all summer (8 weeks) to complete the program. So even if people have scheduled vacations, they can still easily complete the course.
The Management Reality Check
If your team isn't using AI today, you're not just falling behind—you're failing as a leader. The evidence is undeniable: Amazon CEO Andy Jassy directly announced that AI will "reduce our total corporate workforce" as they get "efficiency gains from using AI extensively across the company." Meanwhile, IBM has already replaced hundreds of workers with AI and now reports that 94% of routine HR tasks are handled by artificial intelligence, achieving over $3.5 billion in productivity improvements.
As a manager, you have two choices: lead the AI transformation or become obsolete alongside your team.
HERE'S THE OPPORTUNITY:
Teams led by AI-savvy managers are 30-80% more productive. MIT research shows managers using AI complete strategic work 37% faster with 20% higher quality—while actually increasing job satisfaction by 10%. Your role isn't threatened by AI; it's elevated by it, if you know how to lead the transformation.
Your competitors' managers are already using AI to accelerate decision-making, optimize team performance, and deliver superior results. Every process they streamline, every insight they uncover faster, every team member they upskill—that's market share they're taking from you.
Leadership IQ found that 73% of managers have minimal AI experience. This course changes that, positioning you as the AI-forward leader your organization desperately needs.
THE STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE:
This program transforms you from an AI novice into an AI-powered leader who can guide teams through the biggest workplace transformation in generations. You'll master the essential AI tools that any manager can use immediately—ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini—plus the leadership strategies to get your entire team using AI effectively.
While your competitors struggle with basic AI adoption, you'll be leveraging these tools to write better reports faster, make smarter decisions with data analysis, and lead more productive teams. This isn't about becoming a tech expert—it's about becoming the manager who gets 10x results while others are still figuring out the basics.
