1. Start with one workflow, not a strategy deck
Most companies that ask for an AI strategy don’t need a strategy yet. They need one process that works better next month, and a team that knows how to repeat what they did.
A strategy written before anyone has shipped an agent is a guess about cost, risk and staff reaction. One working pilot replaces the guess with facts about your data, your approvals and your people. The strategy you write after the first pilot is shorter and more accurate.
