AI isn’t a new coffee machine in your kitchen. It’s a living, breathing tool that’s completely upending the way your team views their work.
And it feels like it happened overnight, but humans don’t always process change so quickly. Some people are quietly using it for everything, some are refusing to touch it, and most are just waiting for someone to tell them it’s okay.
Too often, as leaders, we forget that in big changes like AI, our responsibility is to not only understand for ourselves what it means for our team, but to communicate how it impacts our culture clearly.
Your team is probably asking:
how does AI fit into their day-to-day?
Am I allowed to use it to write emails, blog posts, recap meeting notes?
You can help all three of them by doing three things:
Asking yourself what the AI culture should look like.
Communicating the expectations clearly.
Giving them the permission to own it.
