Leading Teams Through AI-Driven Change: A Consulting Playbook

This package is an adapted version of the standard I used to hold teams to at Bain and as a Director at Deloitte — how a team thinks, communicates, and makes decisions when the ground keeps shifting under them. AI is doing that to most organizations right now. This works with a team, a function, or a leadership group that's trying to adopt AI tools without losing the judgment and rigor that made the team good in the first place. While this can run as 1:1 coaching, it's built for a group: a team split on how much to trust AI-generated work, a leadership group unsure how to redraw roles as AI takes over parts of them, or an organization that's adopted the tools but hasn't changed how it makes decisions. We'll work through the managerial challenges I've seen come up most, including: - Keeping a team's standards intact when AI makes it easy to produce something that looks finished but hasn't been checked - Deciding what a person still needs to verify by hand, and what's safe to hand fully to the tool - Redrawing roles and review processes as AI changes who does the first draft of the work - Choosing an adoption approach for the team — and being honest about what each approach trades off - Building the habit of questioning AI output the way you'd question a first-year's first draft - Recognizing where generative AI specifically demands a different kind of oversight than past tools did This can run as a single half-day session or extend across several sessions, depending on the team and the problem. The more I understand about your organization and where the friction actually is, the more I can shape the sessions around a live planning problem, a team-culture reset, or a structured retrospective on how AI adoption has gone so far.
