Private workshops
The workshop, delivered privately for your team.
The same framework as the public Amsterdam session — a durable way of judging what to trust, not a prompt library — delivered privately, on-site, and tailored to the decisions your team actually faces, in one of two configurations depending on who's in the room.
What this is
One philosophy, two configurations.
The public workshop and the private track share the same diagnosis and the same framework — the difference is delivery. Where the public session gathers strangers in Amsterdam, a private engagement is built around your organisation's own decisions, in your own vocabulary, with two facilitators who tailor every exercise to the room.
Which configuration fits depends on who's in the room: aligning a leadership team on judgment and accountability, or turning a delivery team's scattered AI experimentation into shared practice. Most organisations start with one and add the other later.
- Same spine
- The six theses and Clarity OS framework, unchanged
- Two facilitators
- Conceptual framing and facilitation mechanics, held separately
- An engagement, not an event
- Tailored to your team's real decisions and tensions
Two tracks
Which one depends on who's in the room.
Executive Leadership Session
A 4-hour executive working session for leadership teams navigating AI adoption faster than they can align around it — fragmented decisions, inconsistent communication, unclear accountability.

- Clear decision rights and accountability across the leadership team
- A focused 30-day action plan, committed to in the room
- Who
- Around 10 senior leaders
- Format
- 4 hours, in person, two facilitators
- Investment
- €10,000 excl. VAT
Mindful AI for Hands-On Teams
A 6-hour practical workshop for contributor teams where individual AI experimentation hasn't yet become a shared, reliable capability — scattered quality, rework, uncertain trust.
- A Team AI Playbook — shared norms for using, reviewing, and trusting AI output
- A use-case map naming the two or three places AI earns its keep
- The first AI Blueprint, practised on the team's own real work
- Who
- Up to 20 contributors
- Format
- 6 hours, in person, two facilitators
- Investment
- €8,000 excl. VAT

How it's delivered
Two facilitators, one division of authority.
Every private session is led by the same two facilitators as the public workshop — a philosopher who builds AI, and a coach who builds teams — with an explicit split: conceptual framing on one side, facilitation mechanics on the other. Delivered as an engagement, not a one-off event.
