Private GenAI Advisory · C-Level

01 — The shift

Like the web before it, AI is rewriting how we all work.

Your teams are already trying AI, often without guidelines. Your competitors are starting to deploy it. The question is no longer whether AI will change your business, but who in your company leads that change.

Technology moves exponentially; companies move in a straight line.

AI capabilities Enterprise adoption The gapto close Feb 2025 · Claude Code Today Time
  • The length of tasks an AI agent can complete on its own doubles every 4 to 7 months. METR, 2025
  • 84% of developers use or plan to use AI; only 31% already use agents. Stack Overflow survey, 2025
  • Accenture is training 30,000 of its professionals on Claude: the big firms are moving. Anthropic, Dec 2025

Closing that gap in your company — understand, train, deploy — is what I help you do.

Lost in the buzzwords

New terms every week, and no clear map of what actually matters for you.

No time to learn

You already work 12-hour days. Generic e-learning and webinars don't fit an executive's reality.

Left behind while others move

Your peers are already using AI to boost productivity and reshape operations. Waiting is the risk.

A new one every week — which ones matter for you?

What you own

“You rent the model. You own the context.”

Models improve, get cheaper and become interchangeable. What stays yours is your context: your methods, your decisions, your data. That is where the advantage lies.

“Artificial intelligence is a bit like the work of an electrician. Our role is to transform megawatts into intelligence.”

GenAI 101 The GenAI Cheat Sheet Simple concepts to learn faster — the basics. Open the cheat sheet

The restaurant behind every GenAI app.

For non-technical leaders
Core idea

A GenAI system works like a restaurant: ingredients go in, the kitchen does its thing, a meal comes out. Behind the doors, three simple roles do the real work.

01 / Decider

Agent

the Chef

The brain that decides what to do next — it plans, reasons, picks the right tools and adapts. It can call on sub-agents — the chef's assistants — each taking care of one part of the meal.

02 / Know-how

Skill

the Recipe Card

A written, step-by-step procedure the chef follows — “how we do it here.” The house method, in plain words.

03 / Tools

Connector / MCP

the Kitchen Tools

The equipment the chef reaches for — the pan, the oven, the blender. Connectors plug the AI into outside tools and data; MCP is simply the open standard for those plugs — the “USB-C” of AI tools.

Ingredients in → Kitchen at work → Meal out

Three uses, one setting and one rule to start this week.

Taken from the trainings I run for leadership teams. Each one takes two minutes to read, and most can be set up the same day.

Three practical uses

The AI plays the demanding decision-maker you don't have on hand to review your proposal.

“You are [the client], [their role], [their stakes]. Here is my proposal. What are my blind spots?”

Setup
  1. Anonymise the document
  2. Describe the decision-maker: role, stakes, objections
  3. Address each blind spot in the text

ResultA proposal that answers objections before anyone raises them.

Every morning at 7, a summary of today's calendar, the last 48 hours of email and yesterday's meetings, ranked by urgency.

Setup
  1. Connect calendar and email, on a business account
  2. Write the instructions once
  3. Schedule the daily send

ResultYou know what to work on before you've finished your coffee.

The AI drafts a reply to every routine email: meeting requests, follow-ups, acknowledgements.

Setup
  1. Connect your mailbox
  2. Describe your tone once and for all
  3. Always review before sending

ResultNo important message buried in your inbox again.

On a personal account, your conversations can be used to train future models. Thirty seconds stops that, once and for all.

Business plans (Claude Team and Enterprise, ChatGPT Business and Enterprise, Gemini for Google Workspace) don't train models on your data by default. That is the minimum for client work.

Before you paste anything, ask one question: what kind of data is this?

  • Green · Go ahead

    Published studies, articles, your website, generic methods.

    If it leaks: no risk.

  • Amber · Anonymise, business account

    A proposal without the client's name, rounded figures, internal methods.

    If it leaks: a competitive edge lost.

  • Red · Never outside an approved environment

    Named files, CVs, HR data, client exports, documents under NDA.

    If it leaks: a GDPR fine and a client's trust broken.

The risk isn't AI. It's the personal, unmanaged tool someone pastes a client document into.

What clients say

“At a conference on generative AI, I had the chance to talk with Cédric about the latest technological advances. He explained that in early 2026 there had been major progress with “agentic” AI — something I had completely missed. The AI revolution is becoming a reality, and I realised that if I didn't close that gap quickly, it could put my SaaS company in real danger. I was fascinated to learn how Amazon was approaching this shift, technologically but also organisationally. I needed to understand what I had missed that seemed to unlock an endless range of use cases. After three long two-hour sessions with Cédric, I was able to restart my experiments with the right tools and the right method. Cédric walked me through the concepts, the risks involved (hallucinations) and the techniques to keep them under control. Understanding the concept of “Skills” in depth simply revolutionised the way I work, and I am now bringing all of my development teams along on this journey. It isn't easy to manage internally, as some feel threatened by such a large change. But Cédric's advice on how to approach the subject with my executive committee and middle management teams helped me enormously. Thank you! I highly recommend him.”
