Delafeld Tech Leaders Peer Group™

Masterclass • Half Day Monthly

The Delafeld Tech Leaders Peer Group™ is a private community for CIOs, CTOs and senior technology leaders who want to step outside the day-to-day and become more effective strategic leaders. Through monthly peer sessions, practical tools, expert insight and one-to-one support, members tackle the real challenges of leading technology, from strategy, transformation and AI adoption to team performance, stakeholder management and delivering greater business value.

Masterclass, Webinar • 60 minutes

The Delafeld AI Leadership Roundtable is an invitation-only virtual session for senior leaders who want to move beyond AI hype and focus on practical, organisation-wide adoption. The discussion explores how businesses can turn AI ambition into tangible value, covering leadership, operating model, governance, capability, use cases and the barriers that often prevent adoption from scaling. It is designed as a small, interactive forum where leaders can compare experiences, share challenges and learn what is working in other organisations.

Organisation-wide in scope, not just an IT or technology discussion.
Covers the key barriers to adoption, including leadership, governance, operating model, capability and culture.
Explores where AI is genuinely creating value, rather than chasing hype or isolated experiments.
Peer-led and interactive, giving leaders the chance to compare experiences and learn from others.

Designed to leave leaders with clearer next steps for accelerating responsible, value-led AI adoption.
