Four Weeks with Hélène and John to take you from uncertain about AI to confident and moving fast as a leader — and have a clear understanding of how your team could also use AI.
What founders and C-suite operators say after 4 weeks with us.
"Learning how to use AI with Helene and John had a real impact on the way I work. I've been wanting to try out the different tools but didn't get beyond AI chats until the course. Highly recommend for any leader."
"I had no idea where to get started and was confused with all the model names. The intro was very clear, and I now feel very confident on how to understand the different Claude chat/code/Cowork, and how to create new tools that work for me."
"Before taking the course I was using Claude and ChatGPT as a chatbot. Now I use Claude Cowork to streamline my biggest time-consuming tasks and can easily build new agents."
"After the course I now only dictate tasks and skills to Claude on my phone, and my laptop manages my workflows as a real chief of staff. John and Helene are excellent teachers."
Two operators who've spent the last two years embedded in how frontier AI is actually used inside fast-moving companies.
Helene built Wild.AI, the applied AI platform for women's health, and sold it to NYSE-listed Zepp Health in 2025. She understands first-hand what an AI product really is, as well as how to optimise your work as a founder.
Her superpower is translating technical complexity into strategic clarity that the whole leadership team can act on. Expect practical sessions.

John has been implementing frontier AI in startups to large corporates. He led and joined technical teams through four different acquisitions. He specialises in agents, automations, and how to implement AI into real businesses.
If you've ever wondered how other founders are actually using AI day to day, John has the recipe.
Connect on LinkedInA live, high-accountability format. Built for busy executives, not students.
Weekly live session: Helene & John teach a module live on Tuesdays at 4pm BST / 11am EST with full Q&A.
Friday clinics: Small-group working sessions where your team builds real tools on real problems from your business.
Async content: Every lesson is recorded. All assignments, templates and prompts live in one shared workspace.
Founder-first: Built around how a founder actually works. You set your own goals in week one and the curriculum bends around your business.
4 modules, 4 builds: Each week you ship one working thing: a prompt library, an agent, an automation, a rollout plan.
Private community: Direct access to instructors and peer founders between sessions. Ongoing alumni access after the cohort ends.
Helene & John walk you through the full stack, from fundamentals to shipping your own internal tools. No prior technical experience required.

Now I use Claude Cowork to streamline my biggest time-consuming tasks and can easily build new agents.
AIReady Leaders is designed for founders first, and for startup C-suites and leadership teams: COOs, Heads of Product, Marketing, Ops, People. If you're responsible for outcomes and your team is looking at you to set the AI direction, this is for you. No technical background required.
Every leader will leave with a working set of personal AI tools, a shared prompt library, at least one agent or automation they built themselves, and a 90-day rollout plan for their function. More importantly, they'll have the confidence to keep building without us.
Helene Guillaume and John, both operators who've spent the last two years embedded in how frontier AI is actually used inside fast-moving companies. You'll hear from guest practitioners too.
Most AI courses are either too technical (built for engineers) or too shallow (a prompt-writing workshop). We sit in the middle: no code, but real tools. We also insist your whole leadership team enrolls together, because AI adoption fails when one exec is enthusiastic and the rest are skeptical.
Expect 3–4 hours per week: one 90-minute live session, one 60-minute Friday clinic, and 30–60 minutes of async practice. We designed it to fit around a C-suite calendar, not replace it.
We focus on Claude (chat, Code and Cowork), ChatGPT, and whichever workflow tools you already use: Notion, Slack, Google Workspace, Linear, etc. The goal is fluency with the best tools, not a tour of every tool.
Yes, and we strongly encourage it. Ask us about team rates for 3+ seats. We've found cohorts land best when execs go through it together.
Everything is recorded and you'll have async access to all materials. That said, the cohort's magic is in the live sessions, so come to as many as you can.
Cohort 1 launches 18 May 2025. Places are limited to keep the group intimate. We'll open Cohort 2 dates shortly after.
Once you've booked, you have 48 hours to cancel for a full refund. After that window closes, your place is confirmed.
Applications for Cohort 1 are open. Places are limited. Apply in under 5 minutes.
