Leading Through AI Transformation : Executive Briefing featuring Mark Josephson

Navigating Your
First 100 Days of
AI Leadership

A 90-minute strategic briefing for VP+ leaders who need to move from AI curiosity to credible leadership action — with a clear first move for their team or organization.

AI is not just a technology issue. It is a leadership issue. This session is designed for VP+ leaders who need to understand what to do first — with their teams, their organizations, and their own thinking.

This is not a tools demo. It is a mindset shift — from "I wonder if AI can do this" to "of course it can, and here is how I lead through it."

Mark Josephson

Senior Coach & AI Leadership Lead · Berman Leadership Development

Mark Josephson is a featured AI leadership expert and senior BLD coach. His background as a 3x CEO — having scaled and exited Bitly, Castiron, and multiple ventures — taught him one hard lesson: organizations that treat AI as a technology problem get stuck. Those that reframe it as a leadership mindset problem move.

In this executive briefing, Mark helps leaders make that shift. He bridges the gap between hype and reality, showing you where AI actually works in your organization and how to lead teams through the transition without losing the human edge that matters most.

Backed by Berman Leadership Development — psychology-grounded executive coaching since 2004. 60+ senior coaches across financial services, pharma, technology, healthcare, and professional services.

Senior Leaders & VPs

You are accountable for direction. You need a point of view on AI that is credible, not performative.

  • Build a defensible AI leadership stance for your function
  • Know where to start your organization's AI adoption
  • Lead your team through AI change without losing momentum
  • Separate hype from the decisions that actually matter

HR & L&D Leaders

You are being asked to advise on AI in people practices. This session gives you the evidence-based framework to do it well.

  • Develop a clear position on AI in leadership development
  • Understand where AI coaching works — and where it falls short
  • Address employee fear around AI with psychology-grounded messaging
  • Position HR as a strategic AI adoption partner

Functional & Team Leaders

You manage the people who will work alongside AI every day. This session helps you lead that transition with credibility.

  • Build an AI team narrative you can deliver immediately
  • Identify your team's first AI experiment
  • Manage the change without triggering fear or disengagement
  • Develop the leadership mindset your team needs to see from you
Why This Workshop

Berman Leadership teaches the mindset. Not the software.

Most organizations have given leaders access to AI tools. Very few have given them the leadership framework to drive adoption that actually sticks. That gap is where BLD works.

Mindset Before Mechanics

The question is not "what can AI do?" Leaders shaping AI adoption inside organizations need to start somewhere else: "How do I lead through this?" That is what this session answers.

90 Minutes. Practical Frameworks.

No travel. No full-day commitment. A small-format virtual session built for real discussion and application — with BLD senior coaches and a group of peers navigating the same questions.

A First Step, Not an Overview

The goal is not to leave with a survey of AI trends. It is to leave with a clear decision about what to do first inside your organization. That specificity is what makes this session different.

What You'll Walk Away With

What will you do differently after 90 minutes?

At least one interactive exercise

A complimentary 15-minute consultation
