A hands-on course for CEOs, founders and senior leaders. Set up Manus safely, brief it like a trusted analyst, and get decision briefs, market scans, board decks and digests you can check before anyone relies on them.
What you will be able to do
- Decide whether Manus fits your work: Compare Manus's plans, credits, limits, availability and October 2026 ownership status with what you actually need. Then confirm current prices on manus.im/pricing before you buy, because they change.
- Set up a workspace you can defend to IT and legal: Use a Team plan for company material and keep tasks private. Give connectors only the access they need, read-only where offered, and leave Skip confirmations off. Keep your primary inbox out of tasks that browse the web, and keep a written list of what you will never upload.
- Brief long tasks the way you'd brief a trusted analyst: Write a brief that covers the goal, context, sources, limits, stop-and-ask checkpoints and output format. Review it in Plan Mode, then save it as a Project master instruction so the method can run again without you.
- Get a decision brief ready for a live question: Three real options, what would have to be true for each, an assumptions register with every claim tagged to its source, a sensitivity table, and a one-page board version made with Branch.
- Produce a market scan, a board deck and a weekly digest, all as drafts: A cited competitor or market scan with a source for every cell. A board deck in your own .pptx template with a source footnote on every chart. A scheduled leadership digest. Nothing is sent, shared or published until you approve it.
- Check the work before a board, customer or lender sees it: Replay the session, spot-check sources, rebuild key numbers from formulas, run a skeptical-board-member review, and record who checked what.
