Hit this year's numbers. Build next year's judgement.

The dashboard says usage is up. The reports are in-depth and look polished. The mandate from above says "more", and nobody has said more of exactly what.

Meanwhile your team might be finding their feet, quietly losing skills, or hiding behind busy work. From where you sit, it's hard to tell which. They've had more hours with the tools than you have, some even built an AI workflow and shared it at the last team meeting. And yet, something stays unsaid. Some are genuinely uncertain what to do with AI, others are scared what it will do to their career, while a few are just happy they get away with chat doing their work while they watch the match on their phone.

AI output looks finished. The presentations look polished. And they always miss something. Most likely it misses your company style, your signature thinking, and the years of experience people used to bring to the work. Discernment and diligence are two of the key skills Anthropic named for AI-driven work. And it's what's most at risk when we rely on a "human in the loop" to sense-check a final output without thinking through the problem themselves.

The key question to hold is how you can do two things at once: get better and faster outputs thanks to AI-native workflows, and still foster judgement, discernment and collaboration in your team.

I understand that you have a lot of competing demands, I'll help you hit this year's numbers and develop next year's judgement. We'll work together on three key areas:

• Confidence that you can lead your team through the next phase of AI adoption without having to know every answer, tool, or technique.
• Numbers you can stand behind: hit some, push back on others, and add better ones that show what actually changed.
• A team that is empowered to ask the awkward questions and works together to find answers and develop new ways of working.

In as little as six weeks, AI leadership coaching can help you get confident in leading your team through the next phase of AI adoption. In interactive sessions we'll talk through your challenges and get hands on.

The coaching sessions are your space to bring everything that's on your plate: the mandate from the business, the numbers you need to hit, the team dynamics, or what it means to lead when you don't know everything.

We'll explore the questions you have, the questions your team are bringing you, and the ones that are in the room unsaid. It starts with you, the leader, and trickles down to your team different ways. Through your leadership style and interventions we sketch out in coaching, directly by offering coaching to key AI champions in your team, and sometimes to everyone in hands-on workshops tailored to your team's needs. If needed, I can be in the room with you and help you get there faster, and I'm here to help you become the leader who doesn't need me in the room forever.

The work is about getting hands-on, with the people doing the work, being with the uncertainty and building judgement.
