- **Event Description**: Build a board-ready AI strategy for your WA SME, with clear priorities, governance, investment options, and a practical path to execution.About this EventYour board does not need another AI lecture. It needs a clear decision, a credible strategy, and a practical path to execution.For SME leaders, the challenge is no longer understanding that AI matters. It is being able to explain where AI creates business value, what the risks are, how it should be governed, and which initiatives are worth funding.This CxO-only intensive is designed for Western Australian CEOs, Managing Directors, Founders, and senior decision-makers who need to develop a credible AI strategy they can take to their board within the next 12 months.You will work through your business priorities, customer and workforce needs, AI opportunities, governance considerations, and implementation pathways to build a concise, board-ready AI strategy. The session connects AI ambition with practical business decisions, rather than treating AI as a standalone technology project.By the end of the intensive, you will have a clear strategic position on AI, a shortlist of priority initiatives, and the supporting rationale needed to move towards board discussion and investment.Who this is forThis intensive is designed specifically for senior leaders in Western Australian SMEs, including:CEOs and Chief ExecutivesManaging Directors and FoundersC-suite and executive leadersSenior leaders responsible for strategy, technology, transformation, or operationsDecision-makers preparing to brief a board or directors on AILeaders seeking a practical, fundable, and responsible AI strategyThis is a CxO-level session focused on strategic decision-making rather than technical training.What we will do togetherDefine your AI ambition: Connect AI opportunities to your business strategy, customer value, workforce priorities, and competitive position.Build a board-ready strategy: Develop a concise strategy covering AI value, priorities, risks, governance, and implementation considerations.Assess governance and assurance: Explore practical AI governance, risk, and assurance considerations relevant to WA SMEs.Develop an SME-ready operating model: Consider the people, processes, responsibilities, and decision-making structures needed to support AI integration.Translate policy into action: Examine Australia's National AI Plan and relevant WA AI expectations through a practical SME lens.Prioritise investment: Identify 2–3 AI initiatives and assess their potential value, indicative ROI, risks, and execution requirements.Plan for implementation: Establish practical funding and execution pathways for moving priority initiatives forward.What you will take homeBy the end of the intensive, you will have:A 1-2 page Board-Ready AI Strategy SummaryA clearly defined AI ambition linked to business strategyA shortlist of 2-3 priority AI initiativesIndicative ROI and risk profiles for priority initiativesAn AI governance and assurance framework suited to an SME contextA practical AI operating modelA clearer pathway for funding, execution, and board approvalGood to knowThis is a strategic, hands-on intensive for senior decision-makers.
