Turned meetings and spreadsheets into working systems.
- Understood AI and Claude Code. Learned how the tools worked, how to give them useful context and how to apply them to team planning and programme delivery.
- Built skills for meeting intake and programme tracking. Automated transcript intake, extracted actions and owners, and wrote updates into the real programme trackers.
- Rebuilt planning and reporting. Created HTML artefacts in Claude to visualise data, regenerated the annual team plan when its spreadsheet changed, and automated the reporting that followed meetings.

Good questions.
Straight answers.
A little more before we talk.
Is this a group programme?
No. This is 1:1 coaching. Your curriculum and sessions are tailored to what you do, your current ability and what you want to achieve.
Which AI tool will we use?
We choose the platform around your goals and the tools you already use: Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Claude Code, Gemini or Copilot. Your curriculum and workflows are tailored to that choice.
Do I need to be technical?
The curriculum starts at your current level. That might mean making better use of standard features in Claude or ChatGPT. If your goals call for it, we can go further into Claude Code, Codex, Obsidian and GitHub.
What if I already use AI every day?
Most people who come to me have already used AI for some time. We focus on capabilities and workflows you’re not yet getting the most out of. If you’re already advanced, we can work together on a harder build.
Will I build the same things as these students?
Not necessarily. Your goals, ability and tools determine your curriculum and what we build.
How are the sessions structured?
We start with an intake form and a 30-minute goals session. Then you have 4 hands-on coaching sessions, spread over no more than four weeks.
What if it isn’t working for me?
There’s a money-back guarantee after the first of the four coaching sessions if it isn’t working for you. And if I don’t think the Sprint is worth your money, I’ll tell you that up front.
You know there’s more.
Let’s build it.
Tell me about your work and where you want AI to help. We’ll work out whether the four-week programme is the right next step.
