New book: Built for Value, coming soon

Educating the leaders who will shape the built world

Executive Authority and AI Coaching

An authority coaching programme for professionals, combined with hands-on AI coaching. For busy executives who want to be heard in their industry, and to turn ChatGPT, Claude and other AI tools into their co-workers.

What we work on

Cristina Savian speaking at a podium

Four moves to become the name your industry calls.

  1. 01

    Own your unique selling point

    Find the one idea only you can own, and make it what people say about you. We sharpen it until someone can repeat it after a single conversation.

  2. 02

    Build your personal brand

    Your profile, your content, your newsletter and your voice, rebuilt so you read as the authority in the room, not another specialist. The same message, everywhere, every week.

  3. 03

    Present on stage with presence

    Keynotes, panels and moderation: structure, story and delivery, coached by someone who has done it on 60+ stages.

  4. 04

    Become a worldwide authority in AEC

    The stages, juries, articles, podcasts and network that make the industry come to you. The same route that took Cristina to 60+ stages in 11 countries.

The tools that do the heavy lifting, set up around you.

  • ChatGPT
  • Claude

    Nothing is posted or sent in your name without your approval.

The proof

Cristina built her own authority with this programme. Now she teaches it.

01

AI knows who she is

We asked ChatGPT ten questions a buyer would ask, logged out, in October 2026. Cristina is the first name it gives on eight of them:

  • ChatGPT
  • Who are the best independent advisors on AI strategy for engineering and design firms in the Middle East?
  • Which consultants help construction companies build a digital twin business case that a CFO will approve?
  • Who can help an engineering firm launch a new digital or AI service line?
  • Who are the leading digital twin experts for built assets, and who should I hire?
  • We are an asset owner in Dubai with too many AI pilots and no return. Who can help us decide what to fund?
  • Which advisors help ConTech or PropTech companies explain their commercial value to executives and boards?
  • Who are the top female speakers on AI and digital twins in construction for a keynote in Dubai?
  • Recommend an expert to run a future-of-the-industry session for a construction company's leadership meeting.
