Program Description and Context:
The AI ‑First Marketing Strategy: Executing Intelligent Systems for Growth program from Kellogg Executive Education is an eight-week online experience that prepares leaders to navigate a pivotal shift: AI is redefining how organizations grow and compete. Many organizations continue to operate between experimentation and execution, using AI tools in isolation rather than integrating them into a connected system. As generative AI (gen AI) expands marketers’ ability to create, personalize and act at scale, participants will learn to build marketing systems that operate continuously, adapt in real time and drive measurable growth. This program will enable participants to architect this shift through the Intelligent Marketing Operating System (I-MOS) framework, developed by Professor Mohanbir Sawhney, a globally recognized authority in AI, marketing and business innovation. I-MOS defines what to do and shows how to apply AI across your marketing system. By learning to apply AI across connected workflows and align intelligence, decisioning, execution and governance, participants will build the capability to design high-performing marketing systems that continuously evolve.
Duration: 8-weeks (estimated learner commitment: 4–5 hours/week).
Structure: Blend of asynchronous Canvas activities and live Zoom sessions.
Target Audience: Mid- to senior-level professionals and leaders seeking to integrate AI in their marketing strategy.
