The Helmwise AI Captain’s Cohort™ is a leadership experience designed for business leaders navigating the realities of the AI age. Hosted in Knoxville, Tennessee, this Cohort brings together Captains seeking clarity, alignment, and practical ways to apply AI within their organizations.
Through guided discussions, expert insight, and peer collaboration, participants step away from daily operations to gain perspective and return with actionable strategies to lead with confidence in a rapidly changing landscape.
The Helmwise AI Captain’s Cohort™ takes place in downtown Knoxville, Tennessee, a city that blends historic character with modern energy in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.
Participants will stay at The Tennessean Hotel, a refined downtown retreat offering luxury accommodations and personalized service, located just a short walk through World’s Fair Park to the Convention Center. This setting is intentionally chosen to support clarity, connection, and focused leadership in the AI age.
The Helmwise AI Captain’s Cohort™ is designed to be both practical and collaborative, helping leaders gain clarity on how to approach AI within their organization and understand where it creates real value. Through guided discussions, peer collaboration, and sessions with leading thinkers and practitioners, participants strengthen decision-making and build confidence to lead their teams through change.
Each participant will also develop a personalized AI agent prior to the event, providing a tangible tool to support ongoing productivity and daily leadership. The experience is intentionally interactive, combining roundtables, small group sessions, and large group teaching to create meaningful dialogue, shared insight, and practical application.
