Decision Heist™
Where AI becomes the boss.
Three audience volunteers. One outrageously confident AI boss. A real business challenge that goes hilariously off the rails. Then the rules change, and the room discovers what human judgment, context, and leadership make possible.
Watch it in action
See the room take the decision back.
How it works
One decision. Three volunteers. One very confident AI.
The crew steps up
Three people from your audience join Mitch on stage. No prep, no script, no rehearsal.
AI takes charge
A new AI boss hands them a real business decision and a whole lot of confidence. It starts going delightfully off the rails.
The rules change
The room sees the moment a group quietly hands a decision away, and what it takes to get it back.
What your audience walks away with
A wildly funny, live look at judgment, leadership and accountability.
- When to trust AI, and when to push back
- What human judgment and context add that a confident answer can't
- Who owns the decision when AI is in the room
- A shared story the whole room keeps talking about
Interactive. Unscripted. Irreplaceably human. No two performances are ever the same. The audience is the show.
Logistics for planners
Built for the opening slot, the closer, or the moment the agenda needs energy.
After the Heist
The show opens the door. HIVE builds what comes next.
When your people want more than one great hour, Mitch's company HIVE turns the energy into real capability, with role-based AI enablement, leadership and presentation training delivered by a team of experienced facilitators.
