Executive Insight #8

How do you know whether AI adoption is actually working?

Not by counting how many employees have an AI account.

Ask instead:
✔ Are tasks taking less time?
✔ Is work quality improving?
✔ Are employees solving problems faster?
✔ Are customers getting better service?
✔ Are teams making better use of information?

AI adoption isn't about access.
It's about business outcomes.

Measure the change in work—not the number of tools being used.

AI Productivity Tip #8

Want AI to produce better work?

Show it an example.

Instead of saying:
“Write me a customer email.”

Try:
“Here is an example of the tone and structure I want. Create a new email for this situation using the same style.”

AI performs much better when it understands what good looks like.

You can use:
• A previous email
• A report
• A proposal
• A presentation
• A company document

Example + instruction = better consistency.

AI Leadership Minute #8

AI is often used to get answers.

But leaders can use it for something even more valuable:
better conversations.

Before an important meeting, ask AI:
• What questions should we be asking?
• What assumptions should we challenge?
• What risks might we be overlooking?
• What other perspectives should be represented?

AI doesn't need to dominate the conversation.

It can help improve the conversation before it even starts.

Leadership principle:
Use AI to prepare better questions—not just faster answers.

AI Myth vs Reality #7

MYTH

“Using AI automatically saves time.”

REALITY

Poor AI use can actually create more work.

If your instructions are vague, you may spend more time:

• Rewriting
• Correcting
• Checking
• Regenerating
• Trying different prompts

AI saves time when you use it with structure.

Clear context.

Clear objective.

Clear instructions.

Clear output.

AI isn't automatically productive. Good AI habits make it productive.

Today's focus is practical:

• Smarter workflows
• Responsible AI use

The goal is simple:

Executive Insight #7

When businesses start thinking about AI governance, the first reaction is often:

“What should employees NOT be allowed to do?”

That's important.

But it's only half the conversation.

A good AI policy should also explain:

✔ Where AI can be used
✔ What information is safe to use
✔ When human review is required
✔ What tools are approved
✔ Who employees should ask when uncertain

Governance should reduce risk.

But it should also give people enough clarity to use AI confidently.

Good governance creates boundaries. Great governance creates confidence within those boundaries.

AI Productivity Tip #7

One of the easiest ways to waste time with AI is starting from scratch every time.

Instead, give AI something to work with.

Paste in:

• A previous email
• An old proposal
• A report
• Meeting notes
• A presentation outline

Then ask:

“Use this as the starting point. Improve it for this new purpose…”

You retain your existing knowledge and experience.

AI helps you adapt it faster.

Don't recreate good work. Reuse and improve it.

AI Myth vs Reality #6

MYTH
The best AI users know hundreds of clever prompts.
REALITY

Good AI users understand how to give clear instructions.

You don't need a library of 500 magic prompts.

You need to understand a few fundamentals:
✔ Give context
✔ State the objective
✔ Set constraints
✔ Define the output
✔ Review and refine

The skill isn't memorising prompts.

It's learning how to communicate clearly with AI.
