Work formats
Four working formats. Each fits a different task and depth.
Professional coaching to ICF standards: no advice, with a focus on thinking, responsibility and actions of the client.
What's inside:
- Work with mindset and attitudes
- Search for own solutions
- Growth of awareness and responsibility
- Confidentiality to ICF standards
- First meeting (20–30 minutes): free
- Single session (60 minutes): $120
- Package of 10 sessions: $1,000
Ideal for:
For leaders who need a thinking partner — someone to bounce ideas off and find their own answers.
A long-form engagement with the owner — embedding an AI loop into company management and, in parallel, working from a coaching position to ICF standards.
What's inside:
- Diagnostic of AI maturity in management
- Building skills, agents and a knowledge base tailored to your loop
- Rewriting the rules around the new AI loop
- Coaching support for the owner to ICF standards
- Diagnostic intro meeting: free
- Single session (90 minutes): $200
- Package of 10 sessions: $1,500
Ideal for:
For owners who want to put an AI-native management loop in place within a quarter or two and rewrite the rules around it.
A small group. Each participant works on their own laptop, with their own documents and tasks. Six hand-built artefacts by the end of day two.
What's inside:
- AI models on the market: which one fits what
- Context engineering
- AI agents for the participant's tasks
- A one-page adoption plan for the quarter
- From $1,500 (online, 1 day)
- From $5,000 (full program, 2 days)
- Open program — via Satbayev Business Engineering
- Corporate format — on request
Ideal for:
For executives and owners who want to leave after two days with a working AI loop for their own tasks — and a plan to roll it out at home.
AI expertise on boards is still rare — only 2.7% of S&P 500 directors hold it, while 83% of companies disclose AI risk in their filings. I join boards focused on closing that gap.
Background — in the essay “The board between ritual and strategy”.
What's inside:
- AI oversight and regulatory context (EU AI Act)
- Strategy and risk control
- Quality of board decisions
- Competency matrix and behaviour in the room
- $50,000 / year (retainer)
- One-off discussions/meetings: by agreement
Ideal for:
For companies with an active AI agenda that need AI expertise in the boardroom — where it's systemically absent.
