The New Rules of Advice: Hiring, and Being, an Expert in the Age of AI
Thu, Jan 07
|Minneapolis Club
If AI can draft the deck, the contract, and the analysis, what exactly are you paying your advisors for? And if you are the advisor, what are you selling now? In January, Club E and MESA put clients and consultants on the same stage to renegotiate the oldest transaction in business: expert advice.

About the event
AI has quietly rewritten the oldest transaction in business: paying someone who knows more than you do.
An operator with the right tools can now produce in an afternoon what used to require an engagement letter and six weeks, the market analysis, the first-draft contract, the financial model, the strategy deck. So what's still worth paying for? More than you might think. But not the same things, not at the same prices, and not under the same terms.
On January 7, 2027, Club E and MESA put both sides of that negotiation on stage. You'll hear from operators who have rethought what they hire out and what they now handle in-house, and from advisors who have rebuilt their offerings, pricing, and delivery around AI rather than in spite of it. One candid conversation, two vantage points, and a clear-eyed look at where expert judgment still commands a premium.
If you hire outside expertise, you'll leave with:
A framework for what to keep in-house (with AI) and what still demands outside judgment
The questions that separate advisors who use AI to deliver more from advisors being hollowed out by it
How engagement structures and pricing are shifting in 2027, and how to negotiate them
If you sell expertise, you'll leave with:
Where value is migrating now that information is cheap: judgment, accountability, execution, access.
How to reprice and repackage your services when the deliverable is no longer scarce.
What clients now expect from speed, transparency, and proof, and how the best firms are delivering it.
January is when engagement letters get signed and retainers get renewed. Walk in with a sharper playbook — whichever chair you sit in.
Everyone in this room is on at least one side of this table. Most of us are on both.
