MSP-specific executive AI training focuses on margin expansion and service transformation

JERSEY CITY, N.J. - July 24, 2026 - IT By Design will deliver its Executive AI Leadership Accelerator programming as part of Build IT LIVE 2026 this August, expanding an MSP AI training program built specifically for managed service providers. Designed for MSP owners, CEOs and leadership teams, the Accelerator concentrates on translating AI into measurable business outcomes - margin improvement, valuation growth and service delivery redesign - rather than broad AI literacy.

The program addresses a notable gap in the executive AI training market. While most available courses focus on explaining what AI is, the Accelerator centers on how MSPs operationalize it, covering automation and AI agents, governance, go-to-market strategy, and the operational redesign required to package AI as a client-facing service. The format is live and cohort-based, with hands-on workshops and implementation frameworks that participants apply directly to their own businesses.

"If you're trying to grow an MSP business right now, the real differentiator isn't your tool stack - it's relationships, trust, and how you show up as a trusted advisor in the AI era," said Sunny Kaila, Founder & CEO of IT By Design.

The Build IT LIVE edition gives attendees a hands-on entry point into the methodology during the event's closing AI Accelerator day. The executive AI training for MSPs also runs as quarterly two-day, in-person sessions throughout the year, where MSP leadership teams build working automations using current AI tooling. Upcoming cohorts are planned for the fall and early next year, providing leadership teams a recurring path into the program beyond the event itself.

The training reflects IT By Design's broader position in the managed services community, where the company pairs its global talent services with AI enablement programs and executive peer groups, including the Build IT Mastermind community.

Details on the Executive AI Leadership Accelerator and Build IT LIVE 2026 are available on the event site, with ongoing speaker announcements and program updates published on the Build IT LIVE news page.
