The Corporate AI Handbook

How a company adopts AI one workflow at a time. This is the method we teach in corporate workshops and use in consulting engagements, written down so your team can start without us.

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.

RulePick one workflow, get it working with people in the loop, and write the strategy from what you learned.

Want to run this with your team?

We run leadership sessions, hands-on workshops and first-agent pilots, on site or remotely, in English or 中文. For what’s changing each month, read the AI trend report.
