Many organizations already have initial AI ideas, tools or individual initiatives. The AI Strategy Sprint turns these into orientation, priorities and a reliable basis for the next steps.
Together, we establish where your organization stands today, which topics matter most and how to turn them into an actionable roadmap.
Individual tools, initial use cases and engaged employees are an important starting point. Without a shared direction, clear responsibilities and priorities, AI often remains fragmented.
01
ORIENTATION
Where do we stand today?
02
PRIORITIES
Which topics deserve attention first?
03
STRUCTURE
Which roles, responsibilities and next steps does the organization need?
Understand first. Then prioritize. Then scale.
QUICK READINESS CHECK
How well prepared is your organization for AI?
ORGANIZATIONAL ASSESSMENT
When a first impression needs to become a reliable picture.
The five-question website check provides initial orientation only. The full organizational assessment is individually tailored to each organization and is significantly more comprehensive.
It helps us understand how AI is actually used within the organization today, which structures already exist, where opportunities, uncertainties and different perspectives lie, and which topics matter for the next steps.
Whether the assessment is anonymous or linked to individual respondents is agreed with the organization.
The findings form the basis for joint evaluation, prioritization and the Strategy Sprint.

THE STRATEGY SPRINT
Assess together. Prioritize. Decide.
The Strategy Sprint connects the organizational assessment findings with your organization's priorities. Together, we consider use cases, responsibilities, competence needs and governance requirements, and agree the next steps.
Evaluation and prioritization are based on the Institute for AI methodology and individually tailored to the organization.

FROM SPRINT TO TRANSFORMATION
The Strategy Sprint is the starting point.
The findings form the basis for further organizational development, from Corporate Learning and governance to role models, AI policies and the implementation of prioritized use cases.
Corporate Learning can address competence gaps. Where roles, governance or priorities are missing, the Strategy Sprint establishes the organizational foundation.
The AI Strategy Sprint is a structured entry point into organizational AI transformation. It connects organizational assessment, joint evaluation and prioritization with clear next decisions.
What is the difference between the 5-question quick check and the organizational assessment?
The public quick check provides initial orientation. The full organizational assessment is significantly more comprehensive and individually tailored to the organization.
How individually tailored is the assessment?
The scope, topics and perspectives included depend on the organization's starting point and objectives. There is no fixed length for all projects.
Can the assessment be anonymous?
Yes. Whether the assessment is anonymous or linked to individual respondents is agreed with the organization.
Who should be included in the assessment?
Depending on the objectives, different roles and perspectives can be included, such as leadership, employees and those responsible for AI, data or governance.
What happens after the Strategy Sprint?
The findings form the basis for further development: Corporate Learning, governance, role models, pilot projects and the implementation of prioritized use cases.
Is the Strategy Sprint suitable for organizations that already use AI?
Yes. Existing tools, use cases and initiatives can be assessed and connected into a shared direction with clear responsibilities and priorities.
YOUR NEXT STEP
Establish clarity before investing.
The Strategy Sprint provides a reliable basis before AI initiatives are scaled, budgets are committed or new structures are established.
