Build the strategic vision every AI leader needs

The era of experimental AI is over. To lead in this new landscape, senior product professionals must move beyond simple feature integration and learn to architect defensible AI product strategies. Succeeding as an AI leader requires the foresight to navigate model commoditization, the financial acumen to manage complex unit economics, and the authority to align the C-suite around a high-stakes vision.


The AI Product Strategy Certification moves beyond the "how-to" of building products to the "why" and "where" of business strategy. You will learn to identify high-leverage opportunities using AI Value Archetypes, structure business models that protect margins against rising inference costs, and design the organizational operating systems required to innovate at speed.


By the end, you will possess a board-ready AI Strategic Roadmap and Governance Framework, positioning you not just as a product builder, but as the executive leader driving your company’s transformation.
