    AI Is Fast. That Doesn’t Mean It Should Lead. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The best results come from knowing what people should decide—and what AI should help expand. Artificial Intelligence can generate ten ideas before most of us have finished explaining the first one. That speed is useful, but it can also create a subtle problem: when AI moves first, its output can begin shaping the direction of the work before we’ve decided what actually matters. Consider a manager preparing for an important team meeting. They could ask AI to build the agenda, identify priorit

    AI Can Make the Wrong Problem Look Right (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Before you ask AI for an answer, examine the assumptions hidden in your question. Artificial Intelligence can produce a polished answer to the wrong problem faster than most teams can recognize their mistake. Consider a leader who asks AI, “How can we overcome employee resistance to change?” The request sounds reasonable. But it has already converted an interpretation—resistance—into a fact. Employees might be confused, unconvinced, overloaded, or responding to consequences leadership has not co

    AI Can Help You Work Faster. But Is the Work Better? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Artificial Intelligence is changing how work gets done. People can research faster, generate more ideas, analyze more information, and complete tasks that once required considerably more time. But faster work isn’t always better work. AI can generate an answer before we understand the question. It can produce a solution before we’ve identified the problem. And it can give us something polished enough to accept before we’ve determined whether it’s accurate, useful, or appropriate. What’s Your Pro

    What’s Your Problem? #66 (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Our team came up with a new idea that we think could significantly improve part of our business. But when we shared it with one of our subject-matter experts, they immediately told us, “That won’t work.” They know the business better than anyone, so we don’t want to ignore their experience. At the same time, if every new idea has to fit what we already know works, how do we ever innovate? How should we respond when the experts say an idea won’t work? Your subject-matter expert may be right

    What’s Your Problem? #65 (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    I lead a team where people come to me all day with questions: What should we do? Which option should we choose? How should we handle this? I’ve always thought part of being a good leader was having answers, but I’m beginning to wonder whether I’m solving too many problems for people—or answering questions before I really understand what they’re asking. Is there a better way to answer questions? Sometimes the best way to answer a question is not to answer it—at least not immediately.
