What is the Lead the Next Wave of GenAI course about?

Many enterprise AI leaders deliver working prototypes, but struggle to secure long-term buy-in because their designs aren't anchored in accepted standards. Without a shared language, alignment erodes across engineering, security, and product teams. The most effective leaders don’t just build, they legitimize.
