Petros Voulgaris
Director – GenAI Industry Practice Lead, Moody’s Analytics
Generative AI is already central to the conversations I'm having with clients, but I'm conscious that being close to it commercially is not the same as understanding how to implement it strategically.
I can articulate the value proposition; what I want is a more rigorous framework for how organisations should actually move from insight to execution - where to start, what to prioritise, and how to bring leadership teams along on that journey. Currently based in New York, at Moody's Analytics, I lead commercial strategy for Generative AI across Lending, KYC/AML, and Risk. I'm an enterprise sales executive and CFA charter holder with over 15 years of experience across financial services, working with banks and asset managers in Europe and the US.
“Even with a solid foundation in AI concepts and prior executive education, this programme stood apart.”
“Simply put, to learn what's latest and put it into practice straight away. I wanted to close the gap between what I was already doing with AI commercially and what was actually possible."
The AI for Leaders programme was laser-focused on the most recent developments in Generative AI and gave me practical, immediately applicable ideas for my day-to-day work well beyond what I'd encountered before.
But the highlight for me was the final project, I built an agent for my sales consulting company focused on Greek SMEs. That kind of hands-on output is what makes the learning stick.
“The course didn't just give me ideas; it gave me the confidence and the framework to execute them.”
“What stood out for me - the balance between theoretical grounding and practical application was exactly right.”
I'm a long-standing advocate of the School. My Executive MBA experience gave me a deep appreciation for the quality of thinking LBS brings to everything it does. When I saw the Generative AI for Leaders programme, it felt like a natural next step. I've also been building on Claude, creating agents in Copilot, and using RAG far more effectively in my day-to-day work.
