MMAI Inc. (Headquarters: Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture; CEO: Tatsuya Matsuoka) will launch the 'AI Management Transformation Academy,' a practical community targeting executives and business leaders, starting in May 2026.
■ Background
There is no longer a day when we don't hear the word 'AI.'
On the other hand, in actual management situations,
there are many cases where AI implementation proceeds without the executives fully understanding it.
Having experienced venture growth, entrepreneurship and turnaround, management reform in manufacturing, and the launch of overseas businesses,
and having faced many business owners, I consistently feel that
'the depth of the executive's understanding determines the outcome.'
A deep understanding of AI, real information on successes and failures,
and continuously catching up with daily changes.
These will become extremely important for future executives.
■ Service Overview
This academy is not merely for acquiring AI knowledge;
it is a community based on practical experiences that shares 'how to use it in management.'
For example, discussing questions such as:
- Is it really possible to reduce personnel with AI?
- Is reducing staff genuinely appropriate?
- Will doing so make the organization stronger?
These discussions will be based on the actual cases of participating companies.
Assuming NDAs (Non-Disclosure Agreements) among participants,
we will facilitate honest information sharing in a closed environment.
■ Features
- For executives and top management
- Based on real experiences (sharing success and failure cases)
- Offline-centric (bootcamps and regular meetings)
- Continuous community building
*A small-group system is emphasized to ensure dense discussions among participants.
■ Program Structure
This academy uses
a 2-day bootcamp experience as the entry point.
The goal is to catch up on the overall picture and practical usage of AI in a short period,
and by actually using and discussing it, reach a state where you understand its characteristics and limits.
