I’ve led teams through complex AI adoption, built the systems that power it, taught hundreds of leaders how to navigate it, and solved the human challenges that make or break it. If you’re looking for a partner who’s seen what works across industries, let’s have a conversation.
How we work together
1 / AI leadership programmes
Programmes that teach leadership teams how to think - building genuine AI fluency that transforms how they approach decisions, strategy, and daily work.
These are structured experiences that blend live workshops, practical application, and team coaching. I bring in specialist collaborators where the work demands it - people with deep expertise in areas like behavioural design, data strategy, and organisational change. Teams leave with a shared language for AI collaboration and the confidence to apply it independently. The same methodology underpins my courses at iF Academy, D&AD, and the Marketing Academy, where they’re rated as some of the most practical and impactful by participants.
- Format: 4-8 week structured programmes with live workshops, async application, and team coaching
- For: Leadership teams at organisations embedding AI into their operations
- Outcome: Teams that think differently about AI - not just use it more
2 / Strategic advisory
Monthly strategic partnership for leaders making high-stakes decisions about AI, digital transformation, and product strategy. I help you think through complex trade-offs with the perspective of someone who’s sat in every seat - engineer, designer, strategist, and board member.
This isn’t traditional consulting. There are no slide decks or deliverables. It’s decision support - the kind of thinking partnership where you bring your hardest questions and leave with clarity and confidence.
- Format: Monthly sessions plus async access for urgent decisions
- For: CEOs, CTOs, and transformation leaders navigating AI strategy
- Outcome: Confident decision-making grounded in both technical reality and business context
3 / Board & startup advisory
Strategic guidance and network access for AI companies entering enterprise markets. Having spent a decade working with Fortune 500 organisations, I help founders navigate enterprise sales, strategic positioning, and scaling challenges - while providing credibility in investor and customer conversations.
- Format: Ongoing advisory with board-level engagement
- For: Series A to C AI companies with serious ambition and purpose-driven founders
- Outcome: Faster path to enterprise revenue, stronger positioning, and informed strategic decisions
4 / Keynotes & workshops
Talks and workshops that challenge conventional thinking while equipping audiences with ideas and tools they can apply immediately. I’ve spoken at 40+ global events across four continents, and audiences consistently rate my sessions among their most valuable experiences.
- Format: Keynotes (30-60 min), workshops (half-day to full-day), executive briefings
- For: Premium conferences, executive gatherings, and organisational offsites

What people say
"Tey cuts through the usual tech hyperbole with refreshing clarity and unexpected humour. He speaks about complex technical concepts with the rare combination of depth and accessibility that comes from having both built the systems and led the teams."
