Leaders love Data & AI investments that pay off.So they join Data Masterclass.
In 90 days, your team builds a plan your board will back — with coaches who have done it at Zalando, Microsoft, Disney and HelloFresh. Then three months of weekly advisory and coaching to execute it.
30 minutes. We will tell you honestly whether this is the right fit.
We agree your results together, in writing, as part of your game plan. If we hold up our side and you hold up yours and those results are not there, we work the next six months at no charge.
A legacy is not built on a strategy document. It is built on momentum.
Nobody is remembered for the deck. They are remembered for the moment their company started moving — and for being the one who made it move.
Agentic AI is that moment for your business. Six months is enough to create the momentum, and momentum is the only thing that compounds.
- A plan your board owns, because they helped build it
- A first agentic bet in build, on your real systems and data
- A team that keeps going when you are not in the room
Momentum is a rhythm, not a push
Group coaching — a live decision unblocked before it stalls
Advisory workshops, expert sessions and your own coaching session
A strategy clinic to reset priorities against what you have learned
Results reviewed against the plan — then the next horizon
In five years, someone will be the reason your company moved when it did. Make it you.
How We Work
Impactful advice from exceptional coaches.
That's where clarity happens.
Stop defending your roadmap. Start setting the standard in your industry.
The leaders who get this right are not the ones with the best deck. They are the ones whose business stakeholders come to them — and whose companies become the reference everyone else in the sector is measured against.
That is what six months is for.
- Recognition where it counts. Your board backs the plan because they helped shape it.
- Demand instead of resistance. Business teams ask for what you are building.
- Industry position. Your company becomes a genuinely data-driven, agentic business — visibly ahead of its sector.
- A seat that is not up for renegotiation. You are the one leading the agentic shift, not reacting to it.
500+ leaders who are solving the same problem you are.
Most data & AI leaders are the only person in their company who owns this problem. Inside Data Masterclass you are not. Every week, leaders bring live decisions to the group — with accountability, and in confidence.
Not a forum full of vendors. Data & AI leaders, board members, CTOs, CIOs — and sometimes the CEO. All from large midmarket and enterprise organizations.
500+
Active leaders from large midmarket and enterprise organizations
Weekly
Group coaching on real decisions — strategy, data, platform, agentic AI
3
Regional events a year — Europe, USA, India. Your membership includes 5 seats.
Your membership does something beyond your business.
We are a More Than Profit company. We reinvest our profits into the green economy and into rescuing children from trafficking. Every six months of membership funds both — and every renewal does it again.
250 m² of real rainforest planted in Panama
Planted for every six-month membership through our partnership with Generation Forest — permanent, biodiverse rainforest, not a one-season offset. A full year plants 500 m².
One child saved from trafficing and cared for
Every six months funds the rescue of one child from trafficking through Marici — and the care and reintegration that follows, so the child gets a life back and not just a rescue. Marici have already brought tens of thousands of children to safety.
And our own mission: 100 companies succeeding in their data & AI transformation by 2030. Thirty are done.
