Beginner to Advanced6-8 hoursFull prompt design framework + personal prompt library

Every major prompt engineering technique — from basic clarity to advanced agentic reasoning. Not a list of tips. A mental model you can apply to any task, any tool, any context.

...Every additional word is closing a gap that the first prompt left open — the format, the length, the platform, the audience, the topic, the angle. Each gap you close is a gap the model no longer has to...

Build / Buy / Partner / Participate — Ecosystem Strategy

Intermediate to Advanced (SA, EA, TS)5-6 hoursBuild/buy/partner/participate decision framework + vendor and ecosystem evaluation scorecard + exit and switching cost analysis template

How to decide what to build, what to buy, what to access through partners, and what to participate in through ecosystems — covering differentiation vs commodity analysis, vendor evaluation, total cost of ownership, interoperability velocity, exit strategy, and lock-in risk.

...partner, or participate — should follow from where on that spectrum the capability sits. I've seen teams build commodity capabilities because it was familiar, and buy differentiating capabilities because...

Emerging Technology Scanning

All levels — SA, EA, TS3-4 hoursTechnology radar template + horizon scanning process + hype vs signal evaluation criteria

How to monitor what is coming, filter signal from noise, and make deliberate decisions about when and how to adopt new technologies — before being forced to react.

...to scan — Sources, signals, and how to structure the horizon Without a structure for what to scan, teams either scan randomly (whatever catches their eye) or not at all. Random scanning produces random...

AI Capabilities, Limitations & Use Cases

Beginner to Intermediate3-4 hoursTask-to-AI fit judgment + reference materials

What AI is genuinely good at, where it will let you down, and how to match the right task to the right tool. The judgment you need before you touch a prompt.

...specific: not "give me ideas for my product" but "give me fifteen names for a B2B SaaS tool that helps HR teams with onboarding, targeting mid-size tech companies, with a tone that's professional but not corporate." Transformation This...

Conway's Law & Team Boundaries

CTO, VP Engineering, Engineering Directors, Principal Engineers3-4 hoursTwo-layer boundary map — the official org design set against actual incident load, with every structural gap named

Your architecture mirrors your communication structure whether you designed it that way or not — which makes team boundaries an architectural decision.

...They hire, they reorganise, and six months later the same friction is back in a different shape. Your teams will build a system that looks like your organisation. That is not a metaphor — it is a law. If...

Architecture Governance

Intermediate to Advanced (SA, EA, TS)5-6 hoursGovernance model canvas + architecture principles register + escalation path template

How to design, implement, and measure architecture governance — the mechanisms that ensure decisions are made consistently, applied correctly, and aligned with strategy.
