01The problem

You do not need more information. You need a repeatable way to use it.

The work that quietly eats your week.

Most retired partners building a second act are not behind because they lack intelligence. They are behind because every new tool feels like another thing to manage.

This course gives you a simpler way to use Claude, without turning yourself into a technical person.

  • Too much time spent on routine work
  • Too many messy inputs, never the same twice
  • Too much rewriting, organizing, and explaining
  • Too little time left for the work that actually matters
  • No clear way to use AI without feeling overwhelmed
02The promise

What the next ninety days can actually look like.

Before this course

Most weeks now

  • You write the same kind of email three different ways
  • You rewrite junior drafts past midnight
  • You explain the same ideas to clients in slightly worse versions
  • You experiment with AI tools and never go back to them
  • You finish the week behind on the work that matters
After this course

Most weeks after this.

  • Define what you sell now, in a sentence
  • Turn old relationships into structured opportunities
  • Build a premium advisory identity, slowly and well
  • Run the practice without rebuilding the firm you just left
03Who this is for

This course is for you if any of these sound like your week.

01

You are a retired or stepping-out partner

02

You want a deliberate second act, not a generic consultancy

03

You want to turn relationships into a small, premium practice

+ what it is not

If you want shortcuts that remove human review, this is not it.

Every workflow assumes a professional review layer. Judgment stays with you.

06What you get at this tier, vs. the others

The honest comparison across all four tiers.

Every tier ladders up. You can always start lower and step up. You cannot start at IV and step down, at that level the install is in your firm, not on your desk.

07The course path

A four-week, four-step rhythm.

You can finish faster. Most members do not. The cadence is built so you actually use the work, not just consume it.

01
Week 1

Sovereign audit

Identify the work only you should be doing, and the work you should never touch again.

02
Week 2

Premium positioning

Define what you sell now, in one sentence. Stress-test against three live opportunities.

03
Week 3

The operating model

Build the personal system that makes premium output repeatable, not heroic.

04
Week 4

Quiet launch

A short, deliberate launch, the kind senior people respect.

08If your firm needs this for many people

There is a private implementation for that.

Private Implementation

For boutique advisory firms, professional service firms, and senior teams that want a shared standard for AI inside real client work.

Executive kickoff, workflow audit, Never Upload Index, custom prompt vaults, the 15-Minute Senior Review Protocol, training, and a written operating manual handed to your team.

8AWhat you leave with

Six deliverables you can run on Monday.

Not modules to consume. Six pieces of operating infrastructure — yours to keep, edit, and run inside your own practice.

01

Board-level briefing workflow (matter, finance, IC, or practice)

02

Senior decision memo workflow

03

Cross-team operating rhythm

04

Delegation framework for the next level down

05

Internal AI policy template (firm-defensible)

06

Chief-of-staff style weekly recap workflow

8BLook inside

A short preview of the work.

Three representative modules, one sample prompt, one worksheet, one practical scene from the week of someone at your level — and one before / after.

Three representative modules
  • 01Board-Level Briefing Workflow
  • 02Senior Decision Memo Workflow
  • 03Cross-Team Operating Rhythm
Sample prompt · copy-paste

Read these three drafts from the team on the [matter / deal / engagement]. Produce one board-level briefing: status, risk, decisions required, and assumptions clearly separated. Mark anything I should not sign yet. Hold all conclusions for my review.

Sample worksheet · Senior review checklist
  • Status of open items
  • Assumptions made by the team
  • Counterparty or counter-position summary
  • Outstanding senior questions
  • Senior-review sign-off
A practical scene · Sunday at the kitchen table

It is Sunday at 7 PM. The week's drafts from the team are on the table. You read the briefing your operating model produced, mark three lines you disagree with, and send the rest back to the team with one sentence of guidance. Monday starts on your terms.

8CBefore / after

What changes about the week.

Before

The way it has been.

  • A senior leader's calendar overrun by other people's drafts.
After

The way it can be.

  • A board-level briefing rhythm with delegation that actually delegates — for your review.
8DHow Claude fits into your work

Three ways the tool meets your week.

Three surfaces, one operating model. You use the one that fits the moment — and you never have to think of Claude as software.

Claude · Chat

A senior conversation.

A short conversation with Claude to pressure-test a board-level briefing before it goes to the committee — read the draft, identify the assumptions, surface the open questions.

Claude · Cowork

Working alongside the drafts.

Working alongside the team's drafts in Claude Desktop — opening three memos at once, producing one clean senior recap, holding every decision for your review.

Claude · Code

Structured documents, at scale.

A private second-act archive of every memo, briefing, and decision letter you have written — organized, searchable, only you and your office see it. No technical skill required; it is a structured set of documents Claude helps you keep tidy.

Claude Chat runs on any Claude plan. Cowork and Code require a paid Claude subscription (Pro / Max / Team / Enterprise) and the Claude Desktop app on macOS or Windows.

8EProfessional boundaries

What stays sacred, even with the tool on.

A senior practice has rules. The tool does not change them; it lives inside them.

  • Reputation, first. Your reputation is the asset. Claude is the leverage. Nothing leaves the desk that you have not reviewed.
  • Confidentiality. A Never Upload List is part of the course, enforced at the desk. Client trust is not negotiable.
  • Professional judgment. The senior person decides, every time. Claude drafts; you decide.
  • Review obligations. A senior review gate sits at every step. Nothing reaches a client, a committee, or a counterparty without that gate.
  • Internal policy. The program includes a policy template that can be adapted to your firm and defended in an internal meeting.
  • Client trust. No shortcut. Claude is on your side of the desk; the client sees the work, not the tool.
  • Human review. Required before anything leaves the desk.
  • Not for influencers. This is not a side-hustle, audience-building, or AI-celebrity program. The work is quiet, private, and serious. Your platform is your reputation — not a feed.
09Frequently asked

Common questions.

Do I need any AI experience?
Built for senior operators. No AI background assumed—your professional judgment is the prerequisite, not prompt experience.
How long does it take?
Get your first win in week one. Four-week core path; the full library—27 modules—is yours for life. Private implementation is a 90-day, scope-priced upgrade.
Is this practical or theoretical?
Practical. Every lesson ends with a copy-paste prompt, a real example, and a checklist. No "future of work" talks.
Will this work for my profession?
Yes. Retired partners building a second act are the audience this was built around. The workflows match the actual deliverables you produce most weeks.
What if I get stuck?
Every course buyer gets The Leverage Club included, there is one room inside for asking working questions, plus a written Vault. You will not be alone in a forum with strangers.
Is it safe to use at work?
The course includes a clear policy template, the Never Upload List, sanitization rules, and the 15-Minute Senior Review Protocol. You leave with rules you can defend in an internal meeting.
How is this different from other AI courses?
Most AI courses teach you to experiment. This course teaches you to apply. You will not finish with 200 prompts you forget. You will finish with one operating system you actually run.
Can my firm buy several seats?
Yes. For 5+ seats we offer firm pricing. For a true company-wide implementation, see the Enterprise tier ($35k+, scope-priced).
