AI Meets Execution: The OKR Model That Delivers It
Jean-Luc Zehnder (Virtido) and Mike Dias (SV Execution Partners) bring together a practical framework for identifying where AI creates value, and the execution model that turns those decisions into measurable organisational change.
Strategy execution is the only competitive advantage left.
Most mid-market and enterprise strategies do not fail because they were wrong. They fail because nobody built the operating model to execute them.
AI is forcing every leadership team to reorganise their priorities, their teams, and their operating model. The organisations that win will not be the ones with the best AI tools. They will be the ones that can execute the change, week by week, across every function.
This edition of the Forum sits exactly on that tension. Two senior practitioners, one working session with peers, one clear conversation about how AI decisions become organisational reality.
From AI discovery to OKR-driven execution.
Most leadership teams are stuck between two problems. They do not know where to start with AI, and even when they do, they cannot get the organisation to execute the change consistently.
Jean-Luc walks through a proven discovery process to identify high-value AI use cases and break the inertia that keeps most companies stuck in pilot mode. A practical lens for non-technical leaders on where AI creates real value inside the business.
Mike then shows how OKRs provide the execution backbone that turns AI decisions into measurable organisational change, operating as the weekly rhythm where decisions, ownership and trade-offs happen inside the leadership team.

Leaders shaping the execution model of an AI-enabled organisation.
What you take back to your leadership team.
Most senior leaders do not lack knowledge about AI. What they lack is a way to convert that knowledge into priorities their leadership team can actually execute. You will leave this session with:
- A practical lens for identifying where AI creates value inside your specific business, across functions, not across industries.
- A working understanding of how OKRs operate as the execution layer for AI-driven change, from quarterly decisions down to weekly cadence.
- Exposure to how other mid-market and enterprise leaders are structuring this work right now, including the trade-offs they are making.
- A sharper view of the governance, ownership and decision rights your organisation needs before it scales any AI initiative.
- Direct exchange with peers who are navigating the same tension, at the same level of responsibility.
The operators anchoring Edition 03.
Mike has spent over 20 years working alongside CEOs and leadership teams across 7+ countries to fix execution at scale. He specialises in implementing OKRs as a real operating system, installing weekly rhythms, clear ownership and decision rights that turn strategy into predictable progress and reduce dependency on the CEO.
Jean-Luc helps non-technical leadership teams translate AI from concept into business value. His work focuses on the discovery process: where AI creates measurable value, which use cases are realistic in the next 90 days, and how to prioritise them against the maturity and readiness of the organisation. Background in management consulting and certified in AI for Business Value.

The Execution Forum
The Execution Forum is an invitation-only, practitioner-led conversation where senior leaders exchange real experiences on execution. Each edition anchors on one theme, with guest practitioners bringing the case from the room, not from a presentation.
It is not a webinar. There is no audience, only participants. Every seat in the room is expected to contribute. What happens inside the Forum stays inside the Forum.

SV Execution Partners is a team of operators who implement execution systems inside leadership teams, then stay until those systems run without them. We specialise in OKRs, weekly operating rhythms, decision rights and accountability structures that make execution predictable across mid-market and enterprise organisations.
We do not coach. We do not advise. We implement.
