Overview:

To ensure you’re using AI to solve the right problem, start by understanding people at their core, how you can uniquely help them and building deep relationships.

AI will enable many problems to be solved much more easily. So unique value will come from deciding which of the many problems to choose to solve.

Problems that will genuinely help people. That are important to them. That are truly pain points. That are tied to their business challenges in their day job.

Mass research plays a role. But even more, non-scalable, meaningful relationships are the key. Move beyond summary statistics from large groups to mastering understanding of how the problem affects one person. Then scale the solution to many others. 

Actionable Exercises:

• Reflect Monthly: Use this exercise as a structured approach with a set of questions to better understand what has been working and not working for you to achieve your short and long term goals.
• Coffee Chat Questions: Use this exercise as a structured approach and set of questions to better understand what has been working and not working for you to achieve your short and long term goals.

Overview:

AI is the assistant we’ve all wanted. Able to help with small and big things. Quantitative and creative things. Critical and fun things. Whenever we need help.

AI is your new calculator, spreadsheet, photoshop. It’s an extension of you — a collaborator.

At this stage in the maturity curve, you’re still doing all the same tasks as before, but a little faster. A few less clicks. A few less steps.

Get better at what you currently do. Learn something new in 5 minutes instead of 20. Get a second opinion on something you created to sharpen it. Audit all of your work to see which pieces to start with. Start small

Actionable Exercises:

• Workflow cheat sheets: The most common tasks that the community has streamlined, with which tools. Learn faster by learning from others’ lessons and iterations so you don’t have to repeat them.
• Operationalize AI tasks: Use the workbooks template for breaking big tasks into small pieces. Tracking which tool is best to help with each piece. Make clear the last time it was tested. And how much each costs.
• Task audit: Simple questions to ask yourself and your team to surface which tasks to explore getting AI help on. Even “hidden” tasks done in the background. Automatic tasks you don’t even realize you’re doing.

Overview:

Leaders rise and fall based on the quality and speed of their decisions. AI now enables smarter, faster, more thoughtful, more researched decisions.

AI  can improve the quality and the pace of our decisions. This is especially important in tech because so many decisions scale to impact so many people.

We can now consider more view points, more scenarios, more data sets. But in less time, with less effort, with fewer specialists involved.

Use AI tools to inform better decisions with better models, by simplifying complexity, and separating the signal from noise. 

Actionable Exercises:

• Decision AI prompts: To simplify complexity, explore contrarian view points, crunch data quickly, explore what an AI decision would be, and find insights to make your own decision.
• Scenario planning template: Structure exploring several scenarios for tough decisions. Including prompts and peer questions to gut check the quality. And empathy map for people impacted.
• Trend comparison approach: How to think about exploring trends and tactical steps to understand details of a trend, the influences of it, the implications, finding related trends but with different nuances.

Overview:

Great leaders aim to build orgs that can run without them. To elevate the team. And elevate their focus to strategy. AI empowers everyone to do the same now.

AI gets a promotion at this stage of maturity. By now, your tasks have become more clear, structured, and consistent.

AI tools have progressed to do more. You’re paying for the most useful ones for your specific workflow. You’re better at structuring prompts and the inputs you’re handing to AI tools.

With your extra time, you can now promote yourself. Elevate your focus. This is the foundation for being able to spend half your time learning in the next stage.

Actionable Exercises:

• Automation community: Connect with others that care about automating work as much as you do. Learn from their successes. Get feedback to sharpen your workflows. Learn about the latest, emerging tools.
• Work structure template: Use this approach, template, list of questions to break any of your work tasks into this modular, interpretable, reproducible structure. See great examples for inspiration.
• Human centered design: Exercise for you or your team to be able to empathetically test your workflows from your target receiver of your work. Consider different profiles, and their different needs and perspectives.

Overview:

Learning how you learn is the most important skill in this AI revolution. Master what works for you, to increase rate that you can learn completely new things.

AI will increase the rate of change. The norm has shifted from people working at 1 company their whole life. To 1 career, many companies. Now with AI, to many different careers.

To do that, we have to continuously learn. Not just in college. Not just to get a certificate. Not just to get our first job. We have to learn completely new domains and skills throughout our whole life.

What gets measured, gets improved. Measure your learning rate. Invest in learning how to learn, faster.

Actionable Exercises:

• AI Flashcard Pack: Get the full AI pack designed to accelerate your learning and recall a few minutes at a time. Sophisticated resurfacing algorithm based on which topics you’re learning faster or slower.
• Expert mentors: Get expert guidance how to incorporate AI into your work today from our teachers, coaches and the peer network. Alternate between learning from, and teaching them, by topic.
• Ed-venture Plan: Create a learning plan to decide what you want to learn, and how you’ll actually get there. Get granular. Get supportive accountability on progress from the peer community in the course

Overview:

The best leaders won’t focus on tech. They’ll focus on building thriving communities. Only then will AI solve the problems that business and people need help with most.

AI will never replace community. Real people connecting with each other. We’re wired for it. It’s in our biology and part of what makes us human.

It’s critical to feel seen. Feel heard. Feel like we belong. It’s critical to feel. To be productive, happy, and full. Leaders need to build and foster that community.

Within our companies. Within our small teams. Within our customer groups. Foster diversity, inclusion, trust, vulnerability and your communities will thrive. Only then AI be truly valuable.

Actionable Exercises:

• Fuel Map: What fuels you? Get granular, structured guidance to uncover what environment you thrive in. For yourself or team. 100% of people we’ve done this with have found it eye opening.
• Soul Speak Approach: Most of us hear, but don’t listen. Unpack the 5 levels of listening. Move beyond what they’re saying to what they’re feeling, but not articulating. Use to build inclusive communities daily.
• Culture Quilt Checklist: Craft connection on your team with this checklist. With small, tactical ways to foster more diversity, equity, and inclusion every day. Tailored to fuel your AI innovation and adoption.

Overview:

Creating value will shift from doing the work, to building tool work flows that help with people’s most important challenges. Our skills, roles, companies need to evolve.

AI will not only help with existing work, but also enable doing things we aren’t able to do today. Tool builders are democratizing access to some of this.

Creative Technologists need to stitch together many AI tools together into a single workflow to unlock many of these capabilities.

We need to rely on predictions of what solutions will be needed less. And more on being responsive to changes. Most will likely benefit more from buying than building AI tools. And pivot to the ones delivering the most value.
