Who's It For? You, Your Team, Your Executives and Your CEO

    

Since yesterday's post on becoming an AI-Native Executive, I've heard the same question a few times: "Is this just for accounting firms?"

Short answer: no. Accounting is where I started, and it's still home. But what we're building with Humans+Agents is for any business or group that wants to build and educate its team, and for every person in it, from the newest hire to the CEO.

Here's why the timing matters. In a BCG survey of 640 CEOs, 72% said they are now the main decision-maker on AI, twice the share of a year before. AI isn't being handed to IT anymore. CEOs are handing it to the people who can show results. So the real question is: who in your company is ready to be one of them?

The path: a week, a quarter, a year

  • Week 1: productivity. Real work gets done faster, starting with your own projects.
  • Week 13: P&L impact. Lower expenses and more revenue, with numbers you can show.
  • Week 52: enterprise value. A company that's worth more because it runs on its people and its AI agents.

1. For the business or group that wants to build and educate its team

Accounting firm, nonprofit, sales team, franchise group, association, family business. If you have people, this is for you.

  • One price covers your entire company for a year. No per-seat math, and no deciding who gets left out.
  • Training on your own work. Every step ends with a finished piece of real company work, not a practice exercise.
  • You keep the AI agents you build. The training leaves working tools behind, not just notes in a binder.
  • Every leader can start free. The AI-Native Leadership Academy is FREE through 2027, and each leader signs up with their own work email.

2. For the individual who wants to level up

This is for the person who wants to be the added value at their company, or at any company they work for next.

  • Become AI-Native, not just AI-curious. Use AI and AI agents to do the work of your role. Works with any LLM (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot).
  • A quarter's worth of executive-level projects in one week. That's what we teach in the one-hour AI-Native Executive workshop.
  • A skill that travels. It goes with you to this job, the next one, or your own business.

The ultimate value add is leveling up what you offer a company. When you can do that, you're not the person AI might replace. You're the person who leads it.

Where it fits: the Role level ($1,000 a year for the whole company), or invest in yourself with the $1,000 workshop.

3. For the executive who wants to be the one the CEO hands AI to

If you run a function, this is how you show results in it within a quarter. Sales, finance, operations, marketing, people, customer success, technology: there are 13 functions, and each one has its own Black Belt.

Every one follows the same nine steps in three stages:

  • Intelligence: observe the signals, probe the causes, explore the futures.
  • Governance: review the rules, decide what AI agents are allowed to do, and set the results you're aiming for.
  • Execution: identify the gap, vet the options, then execute and improve.

You finish with proof on paper: a signals report, a rules register, a results scorecard. The kind of thing that turns "I've been experimenting with AI" into "here's what it did for our numbers."

Where it fits: the Executive level ($10,000 a year for the whole company), which includes everything in Role.

4. For the CEO who wants a company that runs on its people and AI agents, not on them

Most owners I know are the bottleneck in their own business. (I say that with love. I've been one.)

The CEO level is about running the whole company with AI agents, and building the things that make a business worth more:

  • Pricing power and a growth runway you can see.
  • Cash conversion and smarter capital allocation.
  • Owner independence and transferable systems, so the business runs without you in every meeting, and a buyer would see that too.
  • Customer durability and a moat competitors can't copy overnight.

Where it fits: the CEO level ($20,000 a year for the whole company), which includes everything below it.

Every level includes everything below it. Start where you are. The individual grows into the executive, the executive grows into the CEO, and the company gets stronger at every step.

Train your whole team

ONE PRICE COVERS YOUR ENTIRE COMPANY FOR A YEAR. Role $1,000. Executive $10,000. CEO $20,000. Your people learn on your own work, and you keep the AI agents they build.
